I have had this card since February so I think I can give a review on it now.
The card is great, so far no issues, it is not noissy, I have had no heating problems.
Mine is not overclocked so the 3 connectors is fine for me.
Let's be honest this card as all of the 40 series is waaay overpriced even at msrp, only buy cards like this one if you are really going to be using it for real and not some light 1080p gaming from time to time.

Edit: sadly only 4 months in and is giving black screen errors, installed a previous driver, undervolted it, checked all connections and is still having random black screen issues and is not limited to gaming, while browsing the internet is also giving problems.
It seems to be that quality is not all that great after all with MSI, god I miss EVGA for this. Will try to get RMA.

Was going to RMA but realized the problem was with the monitor that was having some issues it was a 5 years old predator ultrawide, replaced it with a samsung g8. Card is working fine, changing back to 5 stars.

The card worked for about a month after I had purchased it. Suddenly, it wouldn't play any games. It would crash to desktop. Went through the works and updated all drivers, reinstalled drivers, etc. After that didn't work, I put in an RMA through MSI on 2 different occasions, as the card still wouldn't function properly.

I am currently requesting a refund and a way to return this item. If you buy, I hope you have better luck.

4090 GAMING X TRIO 24G

4090 performance is unmatched to any other card (for now). Three fans on the X Trio keep this under 70C during load and the fans have yet to hit max spin. In fact, I haven't heard the GPU fans – my Corsair fans for my liquid CPU cooler are far louder.

From what I've read, these beefy coolers were designed to run hotter temps but a design change (of the chip?) after the fact resulted in better cooler temps, but the fan/heat-sinks were a done deal. Win-win in my opinion.

Real-world results: Cyberpunk 2077 with everything turned to max + ray-tracing (ultra) + 2K resolution provides a steady 50-60 frames (that's w/ a 9900K, 32 GB RAM 3200mhz, on a NVMe m.2). Those frames aren't high enough for my taste, but lowering the settings to high and no ray-trace easily maintains 120+ fps. Game is butter!

Other games run very well on ultra / high settings too.

The card is a beast, both performance wise and size. Measure before you buy! It fits inside very well with my mid-size case (DeepCool Matrexx 55) Large cases should have no problem but always double check.
You micro builders....uh...good luck?

It's hefty and built well; very sturdy, but you MUST use a GPU brace/bracket – it will sag without one and I'm very glad that MSI included a bracket.

The RGB is nice and the add-on software is decent – the lighting app synced with my MSI motherboard without issue. I haven't tinkered with the software much, so not sure if it plays well with other brands or after-market rgb. Supposed to be a fan-curve tool but I've yet to find it (been too busy gaming). Will update on this if/when I remember to.

The price IS ridiculous though; and the only reason I begrudgingly purchased is b/c my recent card was quite dated and I do not see the prices coming down anytime soon for a variety of reasons. If you do not need a card, perhaps it's best to wait, but that's a personal call.

Will update this review if there are any problems with the card, warranty, etc.

Really great card

Great card. You can run EVERYTHING at the max level and still get very high FPS. Cyberpunk looks like its almost a movie. The graphics and the play are unbelievable. Best card on the market, but it is HUGE. Ive never seen a vid card this big, so make sure youve got the room for it. And the power supply. I THINK it only needs 450 or 500 watts, ive got 1000 so I wasnt really worried about it. Just check your mobo and your cpu and make sure everything is compatible. Cos for me, it wasnt. I needed a new CPU and mobo even though they said I could use the same CPU. But i did end up redoing my entire rig. New tower, liquid cooled, new CPU and new mobo.

Works great! a little larger than other cards

Originally I had purchased a Gigabyte RTX4090 which is much smaller than the MSI and other cards, but it arrived DOA and it would not sit properly in the PCIe slot. This MSI RTX 4090 is about a 1/3 fatter and heavier but it worked fine. It goes into the PCIe slot all the way in with any issues unilke that badly designed gigabyte card. When running FS2000 it becomes a little loud but there is no coil whine as with cards from Asus and most other manufacturers.

Powerful GPU But Cost a lot of Money $$$

This GPU is amazing. I understand the price is high but that dosent bother me. I really love this GPU so far and glad to have it after waitin two weeks to be delieverd. Was worth the price all my games run super smooth now I can run ultra settings with ray tracing. I love this GPU <3
(Only note I can say is do not use the cable it comes with in the box you will destroy you GPU if your not careful. Thankfully I planned ahead of time before delivery and bought a 3rd party cable for my GPU that bends better around my med tower case.)

THE BEST VIDEOCARD

Works as expected, pretty fast and at 4K 120Hz on all games.
1 star less because since installing I had some crashes, and Windows 11 incompatibilities with some games not starting.

I recently upgraded from a 2070 to this 4090. While it is a MASSIVE GPU, it was simple to install and works flawlessly! I’m definitely not disappointed.

Wanted a Suprim X so bad, but I couldn't justify the $100 extra it would cost. So I figured I'd play some online black jack to make up the difference.

BOOM! Went on a hot streak and took home like $200. 4090 Suprim X order placed. It's not going to show up for a few weeks. Hmm, I'm bored. Maybe I'll gamble some more and win enough for Hogwarts Legacy. Ended up losing the original $200 I made and a couple hundred more. Suprim X order canceled.

Yeah, that was a crappy ride. But I was determined to buy myself a 4090 even if it meant being in the poor house for the foreseeable future. Luckily the budget Gaming X Trio came back in stock.

Sure, everything's a little crappier compared to the Suprim X, but this card is no slouch.

My card is hardly a silicon lottery winner, but even with a mild overlock, I'm rocking games like Dead Space (2023) at 4K ultra settings w/ ray tracing at 100+ FPS. DLSS 3.0 is an absolute game changer and it's a darn shame it's only going to be available for 40XX series cards.

Has some screeching coil wine when running demanding benchmarks, but when playing actual games with the sound turned up, it's imperceptible to the ear.

This card is definitely a chonker. In the past year, I've gone from a "tiny" two-fan, single slot 1080 TI to a formidable 6800 XT to the almost comically large triple-slot behemoth. The crazy thing is this is actually quite a bit smaller than other 4090 models, some of which take up an absurd four slots on your case.

Not sure how true this is, but I've read it from multiple sources over the past month or so that the 4090 series were originally supposed to have much higher power draw (and thus heat), which explains why each one has such a major focus on cooling. That ends up working in our favor since the 4090 line is "over engineered" to the point where overheating should not be an issue at all. Running benchmarks, my GPU never reaches 70F. The base, non-4K Timespy doesn't even get this card to 60F. And my case fans are just your run of the mill fans in a standard setup. Nothing special at all.

The only times this card was pushed to the limit was when I was maxing out the most demanding games at 4K ultra w/ ray tracing, like Portal RTX or The Witcher 3 with the next gen update.

While gaming at 4K is fun, I also have a 27" 165Hz 1440p monitor. This is perfect for when I just want to go nuts with settings and still get insane frame rates (like 180 fps in Red Dead Redemption 2). Honestly, this might be the end-game 1440p card. You might think the 4090 is overkill for 1440p, but as games get more demanding, it should settle in nicely. I bet you could game at 1440p max settings for the next decade or so with this bad boy.

When I moved from the 6800XT, it kind of scared me. I never wanted to be the type of person who felt the need to upgrade every generation. I liked buying a top of the line GPU and then just playing the hell out of it for five years or so before upgrading. But now that the 4090 is in my possession (and I have a gambling addiction I apparently need addressed), I don't plan on upgrading any time soon. In fact, I'm going to unsub from the r/buildapcsales subreddit to avoid all temptation and just enjoy my games in peace.

Ran really great but started crashing after 3 weeks. Used card may have been overclocked for too long maybe from a crypto farmer. Did troubleshooting until the option left was hardware failure
