MSI RTX 3080 Ti SuprimX Review

Up Close

The packaging certainly grabs the attention with a bright white box and clear product imagery. The addition of the gold version of the MSI Dragon gives away how high end the RTX 3080 Ti SuprimX is.

  

Just like the SuprimX RTX 3080 and 3090 pair before it, the RTX 3080 Ti SuprimX comes with a graphics card stand so you can be assured that droop, or stress on your slot, won’t be an issue.

  

Should you want to show off your purchase in a way other than the bright lights shining through your case window, the SuprimX also comes with a branded cloth mouse mat.

  

If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it is very much something we can get on board with here at OC3D. The SuprimX cooler was fantastic on the vanilla RTX 3080 so we’ve no reason to believe it won’t be equally good on this Ti version. Triple fans and a seriously chunky heatsink should be more than enough to keep this card cool.

  

Around the back the SuprimX has a brushed aluminium backplate separated in two different directions for an attention grabbing aesthetic. We like that the Suprim logo itself is white to catch any lighting you have, whilst the MSI logo is full RGB as you can see in the photo at the top of this page.

  
  

The side view gives you a clear indication of how beefy the SuprimX heatsink is, as well as the size of the SuprimX logo on the side. Whereas the FE version of the RTX 3080 Ti has a 12 pin power input, like the Strix the SuprimX goes with three 8 pin PCIe power, ensuring you won’t be left demanding more juice during a heavy overclocking session.

  

Lastly in keeping with the recent Nvidia batch of card outputs the SuprimX has three DisplayPorts and a single 8K60 HDMI port.
