    Impressive chip and nice AIB, but very expensive.

    Purchased on March 5th and picked up in store about a week later. The packaging is cool but very basic. For a card that is at the time of purchase $700 over the 5090 FE MSRP I would have appreciated some extra flair or goodies in the box. You get the GPU, a 12VHPWR adapter, and a small support stand: that's it. The quality of the AIB seems nice. The fans appear well made and the chassis / housing feels substantial and rugged enough I suppose. The RGB is appealing to me, but if you are looking for something that rivals the 4090 Strix in appearance you may find the MSI TRIO to be a bit basic. The 5090 is still very new to me and the world at large, so I can only give my initial impressions of performance. It's fast lol. The thermals seem better than or at least equal my old 7900 XTX Red Devil and 4090 Suprim Liquid X. It's much faster overall than the XTX, but the 4090 probably not by enormous margins. I won't touch on issues related to 12VHPWR or "missing ROPs", but any potential buyer of a 50-Series GPU should be aware of these. So overall the card is great right? Well, yes... but we can't ignore the elephant in the room: the price. $2,709 plus tax for a GPU is VERY expensive, and for 95% or more of gamers the value proposition just isn't there. It's undeniably a huge "gamer flex" to own one, and the performance is of course excellent, but this purchase is hard to justify unless you are very well-off financially or your gaming PC is your pride and joy in life. Great 5090 from MSI, but man, it's expensive.

    This card is absolutely fantastic. I upgraded from a 3080 / 1440p to now running a 4K monitor. This hits the 144hz refresh rate limit on every single title without issue. It is extremely quite and has not gotten over 70°. Quite large though, so make sure your case has the room. Ignore the fear mongering about connectors and use a quality cable, no issues there.

    While I can't complain about the power and capability of this GPU I think it is still worth noting that there are still some driver issues. My 4090 never had the issues that this has had. No fault of MSI, their quality is as good as always. However, from blue screens, to screen flicker, compatibility with multiple applications all seeming to be based on driver issues in the event viewer, be prepared to deal with a little frustration if you get a 5090. The performance of this is very noticeable from the 4090, but for as much as these things cost Personally I feel like they should be a little more refined from the software/driver perspective.

    Coming from a 1070 to this beast...absolutely a night and day difference. I was at the point where I was under the minimums for any modern games, as well as many current desktop applications. Giving it a 4 stars only due to the power connector location being in the middle of the card which results in the cable having to be draped over the logo. Not sure why it's placed there, but an extremely poor aesthetic choice when you spend this amount of money on something that you want to actually display.

    A Monster of a Graphics Card: MSI RTX 5090 Gaming

    I'm blown away by the performance of my new MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC 32GB GDDR7 graphics card. Not only does it deliver top-notch gaming and visual experiences, but it also runs significantly cooler than my CPU an AMD 9800X3D. Under prolonged full load with MSI Afterburner undervolting at 925mv and a 2830Mhz (+2000Mhz on RAM), the 5090 stays around 60°C. In contrast, my 9800X3D CPU would top out at 70°C under max loads on all cores. The reduced temperatures are a testament to the MSI Gaming Trio 5090's excellent cooling system and efficient design. I managed to snag this beast of a card from BestBuy just in time, as the price jumped by 30% the very next day! If you're considering purchasing the MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio, I highly recommend doing so. To get the most out of this powerful GPU, make sure you have: 1. A well-ventilated case with plenty of airflow to keep your system cool. 2. A reliable and high-capacity power supply (I opted for the Be Quiet Dark Power Pro 13 1600W PSU, which boasts Titanium efficiency). To ensure optimal performance and longevity, I recommend keeping the power supply load under 60% as a general rule of thumb. In conclusion, the MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio is an absolute powerhouse that delivers top-notch gaming experiences. If you're in the market for a graphics card that can handle demanding games and visuals with ease, look no further. Just remember to connect the 5.1 PCIe connection securely and keep it straight for 30mm from contact points to minimize strain on connections and heat buildup. Additional Tip: When connecting your GPU, aim for a straight line from the card to the motherboard with minimal bends (at least 30mm) to prevent potential issues.

    This graphics card is so much more than just great aesthetics. This RTX 5090 easily outperforms the RTX 4090 in every single way. This card takes next-gen gaming to the next level! Best Buy was a super star in handling everything part of this transaction, and the team was very insightful about all of my questions!

    Absolutely a killer card. Does not matter what I do, I cannot get even close to making it out. I use this more for AI than games, but does all well. The only down side is that it's a bit loud.

    I absolutely love this graphics card. It’s a beast and I haven’t found a game it can’t run. Runs editing software super well too. I would definitely recommend the msi gaming trio over the other ones however they are all very similar.

    I jumped from a 2070 super to this and I am so happy with the performance. The drivers are fixed now and playing Cyberpunk, helldivers, minecraft has been awesome. Any 5090 is the best card
