Description:
Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture, this MSI SHADOW 3X OC graphics card is designed for gamers who want strong performance without unnecessary extras. It combines fifth-generation Tensor Cores, new streaming multiprocessors and fourth-generation Ray Tracing Cores to deliver AI-accelerated rendering, neural shading and advanced ray tracing. A triple-fan cooling setup featuring TORX FAN 5.0 blades keeps thermals under control while running quietly, and reinforced internal structuring adds durability for long-term use. The card also ships with a support bracket to help prevent sagging inside the PC case.
