MSI’s custom RX 5700 MECH smiles for the camera

In a recent MSI Insider livestream, the company revealed an image of their first custom Radeon RX 5700 series graphics card, the RX 5700 MECH. This is one of seven planned custom MSI/Radeon Navi graphics cards that are due to release over the next few months. 

MSI has previously released a slide that detailed the Radeon RX 5700/XT MECH OC, but the image that was contained there was a placeholder. Now, MSI has revealed an impact of their current RX 5700/XT MECH prototype, showcasing a twin-fan design that’s similar to MSI’s RTX 2060/70 VENTUS. 

Alongside the MECH, MSI also plans to release a Gaming X and an Evoke OC series of Radeon RX Navi graphics cards, as well as a reference-style RX 5700 AIR Boost series graphics card, which is expected to utilise a blower-style cooler design. 

In their stream, MSI also mentioned that the majority of their custom RX 5700 lineup will release in late August, with their RX 5700/XT Gaming series having a later launch in September.
