The graphics card has been fitted with a Turing GPU based on 12nm FinFet architecture, and with almost 11 billion transistors, it has 2304 active shader/stream cores, 36 RT cores, and 288 Tensor cores. For those that wonder, the board is populated with GDDR6 memory from Micron. I already mentioned that there is no DVI connector.

You won't hear the fan noise in low-load situations as the fans do not spin when they are not needed (up-to roughly 60 Degrees C), once it reaches that temperatures the two Torx 3.0 fans will kick in, but they remain at merely an acoustic level of only 32~33 DBa (!).

A reference card has a ~175 Watt rated TDP, 75 Watts is delivered through the PCIe slot, then 1x150 and 1x75W Watts feed in through the 6 and 8-pin PEG (PCI Express Graphics) power connectors. Considering the Tweak that MSI applied, you do need to add another 25 Watts here. However, we'll examine that further on in our review in more detail.
