MSI’s last RTX 3090 Ti now looks better than ever, and you can get it for free

If you thought we’ve seen the last of Nvidia’s RTX 30-series, we have a surprise for you — it’s not quite over just yet. MSI has just released a one-of-a-kind RTX 3090 Ti, and the card is up for grabs in a special giveaway.

The GPU is MSI’s one last hurrah for the RTX 3090 Ti before the company focuses entirely on new RTX 40-series graphics cards. It comes with a unique, colorful shroud, and whoever wins it will own the only such model in the world. Here’s how you can participate in the giveaway.

While most eyes are already on some of the top graphics cards of this generation, MSI is giving one last hurrah to the RTX 3090 Ti. The exact model in question is the MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Suprim X, and it’s one beastly graphics card.

Equipped with 10,752 CUDA cores, 24GB of GDDR6X memory across a 384-bit bus, and a maximum clock that falls just shy of 2GHz, it’s a powerful GPU even by today’s standards, which are so inflated by the monstrous RTX 4090. MSI still has plenty such cards , and they’re actually more expensive than the RTX 4090.

Be that as it may, MSI is aware that the previous generation’s flagships will soon be overshadowed by current-gen offerings. To celebrate the RTX 3090 Ti before it moves on, MSI teamed up with MouseSkins and artist Brock Hofer to create a unique shroud that helps it say goodbye in style.

It’s hard to deny that the end result looks incredible. The artist completely transformed the card’s shroud, which now features a dragon — much like the one on MSI’s own logo. Painted in a mix of purples and oranges, the GPU almost looks too good to be put inside a gaming PC.

MSI revealed the card on Twitter. While regular versions of the RTX 3090 Ti Suprim X cost over $2,000, you don’t need to shell out a fortune to obtain this card. You do, however, need to get extremely lucky, because there seems to be just one up for grabs through the MSI giveaway.

To try your luck at winning this unique beast, follow the link in the tweet embedded above. You’ll be asked to perform some social media-related tasks, such as following MSI on Twitter and Instagram or retweeting the giveaway announcement. The giveaway ends on February 6, and with thousands of participants, the odds are slim — but it’s still the only way to get MSI’s last RTX 3090 Ti.

What power supply do you need for the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080?

Nvidia’s new RTX 50-series GPUs represent a leap forward in gaming and content creation, but they also push the boundaries of what’s expected from your power supply. The RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, will be the first two models available for purchase starting January 30, and are expected to deliver improved performance over its predecessors -- you can already see that in action in our RTX 5090 review.

However, with great power comes greater demands on your power supply. If you're planning to upgrade to either of these next-generation graphics cards, it’s crucial to know what kind of PSU (Power Supply Unit) you need. Ensuring your PSU meets or exceeds the recommended specifications is critical for avoiding crashes, ensuring system stability, and maintaining long-term reliability.

Nvidia is giving away the RTX 5090 — here’s how to win
MSI's RTX 5090.

Nvidia's insanely powerful RTX 5090 is right around the corner. Priced at $2,000, the GPU is far from cheap -- but Nvidia is hosting a sweepstakes where you can try your luck at winning one. Here's how to participate and attempt to win Nvidia's best graphics card.

Nvidia has already been giving away some GPUs, as well as a whole custom PC, in the lead-up to the launch of the RTX 50-series. Now that the cards are no longer a secret, the sweepstakes have moved on from the classic GeForce 256 to the GeForce RTX 5090, which is bound to be a beastly card (although perhaps not as beastly as the benchmarks would have you believe).

Nvidia’s RTX 5080 might be outrageously expensive

We're mere days away from Nvidia officially announcing the RTX 50-series. Many leakers have already shared information about the specs of Nvidia's upcoming best graphics cards, but the pricing has remained a mystery -- until now. Vex, a YouTuber, just shared a claim about the pricing of Nvidia's RTX 5080, and it looks like we might have a repeat of the previous generation on our hands, and then some.

Before we dive in, here's the obligatory disclaimer: We have no way of verifying the credibility of this leak. Vex was reportedly contacted by someone who works for an Australian retailer, and that person provided a screenshot listing many Asus RTX 5080 graphics cards, along with some basic specs and pricing. It could be true, and it could be fake -- we just don't know right now. One thing is certain, though: If this is real, it's not good news for gamers.
