MSI Readying GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB GAMING X Slim White Model
NVIDIA add-in card (AIC) partners are reported to be taking a nonchalant approach to producing new custom designs for NVIDIA's upcoming launch (July 18) of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB graphics card. The RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB variant arrived back in late May to yet another lukewarm reception for the Ada Lovelace generation—Team Green's board partners are likely anticipating that the 16 GB model's MSRP of $499 is not going to generate enough interest or buzz within the PC gaming hardware community.
MSI could be going against the grain with the introduction of a new custom design for the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB GPU—in the form of its GAMING X Slim White model—as discovered by hongxing2020. This appears to be a white alternative to the company's GAMING TRIO X cooling solution—with a (slightly) slender redesign and RGB lighting strips placed in different positions, although the pale aesthetic does not extend to the PCB and heatsink fins. MSI's fancy GAMING X liveries usually add some extra expense to base prices (+$60 for the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB Gaming X Trio), so this new white model could be sold for more than $559.

At these power levels, they could have easily made it compact and slim, 2 slot 2 fan, and sold it at MSRP or lower, but no.
4060 Ti could easily be a borderline normal size, that of GTX 1070 or so, yet being size-comparable with whales is now totally normalised.
By 2030, you will need two lorries, one for a card and another for the PSU for that GPU.
lmao
"Make it white and mark it up."
I'd love a 4070ti/4080 with this cooler/aesthetic - but I don't own an emerald mine.
