In this segment of the video, the focus is on the design and features of MSI graphics cards. The back plate of the cards is all black and aesthetically pleasing, but the cutouts may limit airflow, impacting thermal performance. Both the regular and Supreme X models have the same layout on the IO panel and offer three DisplayPort and one HDMI output. The cards are over two kilograms and may require extra support to prevent sagging. However, the included stand is tall and may not fit all setups effectively. Tear-down reveals that the Gaming X Trio uses a nickel-plated copper base plate with heat pipes, while the Supreme X model has a large vapor chamber for heat dissipation. Both models have features to improve memory temperatures. Additionally, a black anodized structural bracket supports the weight of the heatsink and serves as a heat spreader.

In this segment of the video, the focus is on comparing the MSI Supreme X and Gaming X Trio RTX 3090 graphics cards. The Supreme X has a default power limit of 480 watts, which can go up to 520 watts, while achieving a core clock frequency of 2940 MHz. The GPU temperatures of both models are around 66 degrees under load, with the Supreme X performing slightly better when overclocked. The memory temperatures are acceptable for both cards, with the Supreme X reaching 74 degrees stock. The Gaming X Trio runs hotter due to lower fan speeds. Overall, the Supreme X consumes around 50 watts less power than competing products, providing decent overclocking performance with minimal temperature increases.
