KitGuru: MSI RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio Review

Today we follow up on our launch day review of Nvidia’s RTX 3060 with a look at MSI’s RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio. This is a physically massive graphics card that uses the same cooler from MSI’s RTX 3070 Gaming X Trio and it’s even the same size as the RTX 3090 model. What happens when you take a cooler this big and stick it on a 170W GPU? That is exactly what we’ll find out today.

KitGuru: Palit RTX 3060 StormX OC Review

Since the launch of Nvidia’s Ampere architecture last year, we have seen a number of GPUs hit the market with very high TDPs, perfectly illustrated by RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 which both consume over 300W of power. This meant board partners had to design some seriously large coolers to deal with such high-power silicon. With the RTX 3060, however, we are starting to see a shift in thinking. With its 170W TDP, Palit has been able to design a single-fan card that is barely longer than a x16 PCIe slot.
