RTX 2080 MSI Gaming x Trio problem?!

[nawras_alnshwat]

Hey guys, I'm buying the RTX 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio this week but I saw some reviews about power balancing and some other stuff so I got worried. I also checked thier Twitter post. Is it safe to buy that card or what? I'm talking about the MSI Gaming X Trio 2080, not 2080ti. I hope this is false because I'm going to buy it soon! Thanks. Sorry for the 2 posts. I'm just in rush :/

I don't have the Trio, but I have the MSI RTX 2080 Duke OC. And I am very happy with it. I think you should be fine with the Gaming X Trio. I believe it very similar to the Duke. Just the cooling is a bit more massive and the cards is thicker. It also has an increased power limit. Means you might get a little bit longer boost clocks before the power limit causes it to throttle down a little. But in the end of the day there will not be too much difference. In terms of heat, noise Duke and Gaming X Trio are very similar according to reviews. But I am very happy with the cards. You will not go wrong with either MSI cards. They make good products.

Question from nawras_alnshwat : "RTX 2080 MSI Gaming X Trio"

Hey guys, so I will be buying a RTX card this week but I don't know which is the better among all cards.

RTX 2080 MSI Gaming x Trio Or Asus Strix? The thing is the Asus Strix card is not in stock yet. The first thing I noticed is, the card doesn't have the OC Logo. Which means it's not overclocked out of the box is there usually versions like this?


And btw i've been hearing a lot about the RTX 2080 (not ti) MSI Gaming X Trio issues about power balancing and cpu throttling or something like that. Is this false? Because I'm going to buy that card soon and I got really worried. My friend told men that problem is with the 2080ti version not the 2080.

The Gaming X Trio and the Strix are the top line RTX cards from MSI and ASUS right now. I usually prefer MSI....but that's just me. I actually decided to not go with the Gaming X Trio, but for the MSI RTX 2080 Duke. Reason are: almost no difference in actual performance, according test they run at same temps and noise levels, the Duke looks go, is thinner and lighter than the Trio, which keeps my rig a little airier. And any performance difference might be a frame or two...so whats the point.
