MSI GeForce RTX 4090 24G SUPRIM FUZION Combines Air Cooling and Water Cooling with 4.5-Slot Design

The GeForce RTX 4090 24G SURPIM FUZION, a new custom graphics card with NVIDIA's top Ada gaming GPU that features not only a traditional dual-fan cooling system, but also a water-cooling system with pump and radiator hidden within, is currently being prepped for release by MSI, according to new images for the GPU that have surfaced online following its appearance at this year's edition of the Best Choice Awards, COMPUTEX's celebration for honoring some of today's most unique hardware.

4.5 slots, oofta, might as well call it 5.

I read a review on another card, don't remember which other than that it was in the last year or two, or who, but the reviewer didn't have great experience with it. On one hand, great the rad is right there on the card, on the other it's not getting separate airflow to cool off with and once it's up to temp there's no way to bring it back down than what any other card will do.

Who knows though, maybe MSI made some nice tweaks with this design and it'll do better than the other one I read about. Trick is price, plus we're within 6-months of something getting launched. Side note, is that you can get a liquid suprim X for close to MSRP on Amazon right now. I saw this last week and almost pulled the trigger but being that I already have one it makes no sense for me to buy one with Blackwell on its way. My biggest concern for Blackwell are scalpers, and now import tariffs.

Might do better in something like a Fractal Torrent with good front-to-back airflow - I bet it'd suffocate in fishtank cases like the O11-D series!

Exactly, that was the issue the other card I read about had to deal with. Just not enough airflow and ultimately the rad got hot wasn't really helping anymore.

Looks like putting a larger brick in your case.

Fractal Torrent

I never really understood the popularity of that case. I had one and hated it from day one. Great airflow? Yes. The amount of space to cable manage on the backside of the case is less than stellar. Also going back to making the power supply exhaust hot air out of the top of the case wasn't ideal either.
