Amazing GPU. Temps stay super cool, noise level is pretty much nothing. Overclocks like a champ. Giving them 4 stars though because it didn't include a STICKER in the box. For 3000$ you guys could of sent something more lavish instead of a bare bones box with the gpu and an adapter. Stop cheaping out on your tier products MSI

Title: Coolest & Quietest 5090 – Insane Performance!
Grabbed the MSI RTX 5090 Suprim Liquid SOC from Best Buy—it’s a monster. 360mm AIO keeps temps under 60°C in 4K ray-traced games like Cyberpunk (full path tracing), totally silent with no coil whine.
Top-tier performance: max settings, high FPS, factory OC shines. Premium design, easy install (if case fits radiator).
Best thermals/acoustics for flagship 5090. Worth it—highly recommend!

GPU performance is outstanding, but everything else was awful.
My “new” gpu shipped from Best Buy’s return center signature required. When FedEx picked it up, FedEx removed the signature requirement. FedEx delivered to the wrong address. On top of that, the delivery image at the wrong house showed the banding straps cut and hanging off the package. Within minutes I contacted FedEx support who abruptly stopped communicating with me so I contacted Best Buy support who indicated they understood and would ship another. Later that day FedEx delivered the opened package that had been resealed. It was twice the size of the gpu with no packing material so it bounced around in the box. There is no way for me to know if FedEx opened the package originally or if Best Buy shipped it that way but I want nothing to do with either of these companies any longer.
Best Buy didn’t ship the replacement, and hasn’t contact me again.

Benchmarks after I configured it on Linux proved it was sprinting at full throttle.
Suprim is a premium, no-compromise build for content creation, simulation, heavy GPU compute, but overkill for the casual gamer or someone who doesn't have CPU, memory, monitor, or a use-case well matched to its price and performance specs.
Water-cooled for good thermals that provide more heavy workload headroom, and quieter and durable than air-cooled,
Needs a large case due to separate radiator (especially if you go with Arctic CPU cooler, which also has a triple fan radiator). Get a substantial power supply.
If you want to avoid GPU removal hassles (because GPUs are starting to cover typical release latches now), highly recommend getting a motherboard a metal sheathed PCIe slot, that some sort of easy-release button or lever for the main (GPU) slot or Slot Q-release like high end ASUS mother boards use or you're going to have be real careful and may struggle to remove it without damaging the slot, the board or the GPU.

While pricey, I have yet to run hotter than 55C and I've been running the GPU at 100% on max everything for 2 weeks. Absolutely loving it. Only thing is why can't MSI add RGB fans to this but other than that no complaints.

How can this not be 5 stars. It is the corvette of video cards. I'm not a gamer but I do some VR with Quest 3. I am burning Mistrals LLMs. This thing is a beast and nothing knocks it down.
Remember, if you are not connecting a monitor and are remoting in, you will need a 4K 120Hz HDMI 2.1 Dummy Plug EDID Emulation.
