MSI GeForce RTX 4090 VENTUS 3X 24G OC

The fastest gaming graphics card of 2022 based on the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace microarchitecture. Part of MSI's 2023 Ventus line of gaming products, it is a premium product focused on 4K gaming. It is also positioned by the manufacturer as the optimal solution for workstations for 3D rendering, creating three-dimensional graphics, processing copyright content, as well as working with AI and neural networks.

In particular, the device boasts the presence of built-in NVIDIA encoders, support for the NVIDIA Broadcast application and a built-in package for working with three-dimensional graphics NVIDIA Studio. The MSI version differs from similar solutions from competing manufacturers with factory GPU overclocking and a proprietary cooling system consisting of three durable Torx Fan 4.0 fans and a passive radiator with an array of heat pipes penetrating it.

Like all flagship solutions from NVIDIA, the card turned out to be large (length 32 cm, thickness 3.2 slots), so it is positioned as a solution for full-sized cases with traditional ATX motherboards. The MSI GeForce RTX 4090 VENTUS 3X 24G OC is based on the 2022 flagship AD102 GPU with 16,384 CUDA cores, 384-bit memory bus, and 24 GDDR6X video memory with an impressive bandwidth of 1008 GB / s.

The operating frequency of the GPU is 2565 MHz, the memory frequency is 21000 MHz. The MSI GeForce RTX 4090 VENTUS is built with new Streaming Multiprocessors, 4th Gen Tensor Cores and Class 3.0 RT Cores. Thanks to them, the efficiency of ray tracing and artificial image scaling has been significantly improved. The raw computing power of this video card without overclocking is 83 Tflops, which significantly exceeds the performance of NVIDIA Ampere video accelerators of the previous generation.

At peak load, the power consumption of this monster can reach 450 watts, so it needs a really powerful power supply of at least 850 watts. Additional software is included with the video card. MSI Control Center allows you to optimize the system, providing an easy and efficient way to configure system resources for various graphics card usage scenarios. And MSI Afterburner is a popular and handy utility for overclocking NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards.
