Product overview

Launched on October 12, 2022, MSI’s GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming X Trio 24G is an Ada Lovelace (GeForce RTX 40‑series) board. In the flagship tier, it exists for no‑compromise 4K gaming and heavy creator workloads. With 24GB GDDR6X on a 384‑bit bus, DLSS 3 and advanced ray‑tracing cores, it’s built for ray‑traced 4K, complex timelines, and local AI work. The card draws up to 450W via a single 12VHPWR (16‑pin) connector and MSI recommends an 850W PSU. It’s physically large—a triple‑slot, 337 × 140 × 77 mm PCIe 4.0 card—with outputs of 3× DisplayPort 1.4a and 1× HDMI 2.1a. Ada also adds AV1 encoding for efficient streaming and video work.
