The biggest hardware changes compared to non-Super cards concern the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super. What’s different is the GPU, the amount of GDDR6X memory or the width of the memory bus. We have the RTX 4070 Ti Super in one of the cheapest non-reference designs, the Ventus 3X, for analysis and it will be about “reputation repair” as well. MSI has tarnished it a bit in this line of graphics cards in the past, but now it’s a very attractive solution.

Even number of blades are usually avoided in PC fans due to it negatively affecting noise, but MSI has decided to use 10 blades here… but in pairs of 5. Perhaps that’s why they opted to connect blades in pairs instead of making a full ring, so that there’s an odd number of repeating units. Really interesting design.
