As the world's most popular GAMING graphics card vendor, MSI is proud to introduce its full line up of graphics cards based on the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER GPUs. Equipped with exceptional thermal design, MSI GeForce RTX 2060/2070/2080 SUPER series are optimized for higher core and memory clock speeds for increased performance in games. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER will be available as GAMING, ARMOR, VENTUS and AERO ITX, while the GeForce RTX 2070/2080 SUPER will be limited to GAMING TRIO and VENTUS.

Ray Tracing, which has long been used for rendering in movies, provides realistic environments by simulating the physical behavior of light. The application of this technology will be even more widespread in the future, as many of the most highly-anticipated blockbuster games have announced support for real-time ray tracing, a next-gen feature only available on GeForce RTX GPUs.





The new GeForce RTX SUPER GPUs result from nearly a year of process tuning and architectural optimizations that deliver the fastest gaming performance in traditional rasterized games and the flood of blockbuster titles implementing real-time ray tracing. In addition, they offer the best performance-per-watt and performance-per-dollar of any gaming GPU in their class.



GeForce RTX 2060/2070/2080 SUPER GAMING Series: Play Hard, Stay Silent
The GeForce RTX 2070/2080 SUPER GAMING TRIO is the return of MSI's mighty three-fan graphics card. The improved TRI FROZR/TWIN FROZR 7 design on the GeForce RTX 2070/2080 SUPER GAMING TRIO and GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING cards utilize TORX 3.0 fans which combines the advantages of both traditional and dispersion fan blades to generate huge amounts of airflow. GeForce RTX 2070/2080 SUPER GAMING TRIO is a huge card with performance to match. By contrast the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING is a bit smaller in size, but still offers fierce performance. Both of them have the glorious glow of Mystic Light RGB infused into the card, which can be controlled through the MSI Dragon Center software.

  • TORX FAN 3.0: Supremely silent - Mixing dispersion and traditional fan blades to provide better cooling.
  • Zero Frozr technology - Stopping the fans in low-load situations, keeping a noise-free environment.
  • Boosted PCB- Using thicker layers of copper enables faster and cleaner signal transmission for sustained performance.
  • Solid Thermals - Combining aerodynamics and structural strength, the thermal module helps to prevent bending and improves cooling performance.
  • Power Cooling Plate- A dedicated aluminum plate covers the power delivery components to provide direct cooling for optimized performance.
  • Thermal Padding - Ample amounts of thermal pads are used to allow various components to transfer heat to the heatsink for better cooling.
  • Tense Cooling - Tightly bolted onto the PCB, the heatsink provides better heat dissipation and strengthens the card.
  • Dynamic Backplate - Besides increasing toughness, the backplate also helps to passively cool the card. Using thermal pads to transfer the heat and holes to increase airflow and dissipation.
  • Dragon Center - A consolidated platform that offers all software including MYSTIC LIGHT functionality for your MSI Gaming product.

The MSI GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER ARMOR builds on the reputation for solid thermal performance with a dual-fan thermal design. Taking the concept to a whole new level, the design adds a bit of heavy metal flair into the mix. The new ARMOR thermal design uses TORX Fan 2.0, providing more concentrated airflow and air pressure for enhanced cooling performance. The Nickel-plated Copper base with high-efficiency Heat pipes transfers more heat from the GPU quickly and efficiently. MSI's Zero Frozr technology stops the fans in low-load situations such as web browsing or light gaming to remain fully silent.



  • TORX Fan 2.0 - Mixing dispersion and traditional fan blades to provide better cooling.
  • Mastery of Aerodynamics - The heatsink is optimized for efficient heat dissipation, keeping your temperatures low and performance high.
  • Game in style - Inspired by advanced armor shielding with a classy black & white finish.
  • Boosted PCB - Using thicker layers of copper enables faster and cleaner signal transmission for sustained performance.
  • Tense Cooling - Tightly bolted onto the PCB, the heatsink provides better heat dissipation and strengthens the card.
  • Dragon Center - A consolidated platform that offers all software including MYSTIC LIGHT functionality for your MSI Gaming product.

GeForce RTX 2060/2070/2080 SUPER VENTUS Series: Quiet and Cool
Dressed in a fashionable Black & Silver design inspired by solid dual-fan design, the GeForce RTX 2060/2070/2080 SUPER VENTUS Series is perfect for gamers and case modders looking for something unique. MSI's classic TORX Fan 2.0 providing more concentrated airflow and air pressure for enhanced cooling performance. The heat pipes with direct-contact design transfer heat from the GPU to the heatsink quickly and efficiently.

  • TORX Fan 2.0 - Mixing dispersion and traditional fan blades to provide better cooling.
  • Premium Design - A fresh new dual fan design, displays its industrial shapes in neutral colors to fit any build.
  • Direct Connect Heat Pipes - Up to 6mm thick copper heat pipes at the bottom maximize heat transfer.
  • Boosted PCB - Using thicker layers of copper enables faster and cleaner signal transmission for sustained performance.
  • hermal Padding - Ample amounts of thermal pads are used to allow various components to transfer heat to the heatsink for better cooling.



GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER AERO ITX: Small Package, Big Punch
Measuring in at max 174 mm length, the new AERO ITX models are small in size, but just as big in performance as their bigger brothers. MSI AERO ITX graphics cards are perfect for small form factor systems and HTPC's as they only take up a fraction of the space of a full-size graphics card. The power of a full-size graphics card in an incredibly small package. Good things come in small packages, it is perfect in any case.



Gear Up and Get SUPER Powers
Every gaming superhero needs super powers. The new GeForce RTX SUPER Series cards deliver everything you need to rule your game. They're powered by the Turing architecture and feature more cores and higher clocks. This gives you up to 25% faster performance than the original RTX 20 Series and 6X the performance of previous-generation 10 Series GPUs.
See every game come alive with super-fast ray tracing that delivers physically accurate shadows, reflections, and lighting. And tap into Tensor Cores for super-powerful AI-processing. Advanced memory, performance boosts, and processing technologies make these GPUs the perfect weapon for hardcore gamers.

MSI DRAGON CENTER
MSI Dragon Center is a brand-new software platform which aims to integrate all MSI software for components, desktop systems and peripherals. For MSI GAMING graphics cards, the MSI Dragon Center allows gamers to quickly switch between OC and Silent performance modes. The all-new software features Gaming Mode, which instantly optimizes your hardware for the best gaming experience including SSD, monitor and network settings. This budding new software platform will continue to improve and evolve, including more unique functionalities and benefits for MSI gamers.

That triplefan looks weird as hell. One smaller fan on the side, aesthetics are out the window completely... MSI... don't get lazy now. INNO3D wants its Quasimodo back.

Yeah it's really wierd... Usually when board partners need to create a 2 large, 1 smaller combo, the smaller one is in the middle, not the side...

World's most popular?

Actuall, that is correct ... back in the era of the 7xx series Asus was the leading seller (and performance leader), followed by EVGA ... EVGA had quite a few disasters (570, 970, 1060-1080). Since the 9xx series, MSI has gained substantial ground and not only in sales but performance ... if course, the latter drives the former.

Fastest (fps) OC'd 2080 Ti tested by TPU = MSI Lightning Z (236.7)
2nd fastest OC'd 2080 Ti tested by TPU = MSI Gaming X Trio (226.6)

Fastest OC'd 2080 tested by TPU = MSI Gaming X Trio (180.2)
2nd fastest OC'd 2080 tested by TPU = Zotac Amp Extreme (177.7)

Fastest OC'd 2080 tested by TPU = Zotac Amp Extreme (145.4)
2nd fastest OC'd 2080 tested by TPU = MSI Gaming Z (144.5)

Ya know the team that was the dynasty in any sport 5 years ago is not in that position anymore, same with technology, things change.

As for the fans, I don't understand how the side you don't see matters ... for me, Im gonna add water blocks, so not an issue and bigger PCB means room or more VRMs and other goodies and the larger block means bigger thermal mass / cooling.
