Ouch. I already feel a little sorry for retailers here in EU. You can return any product within 14 days without giving any reason over here. The MSRP of the nVidia FE is €2329 in Germany (including 19% VAT). The MSI Vanguard could well be in the €2500+ range and this limited edition could be even more expensive.

I foresee a lot of "happy" customers receiving their €2500+ Vanguard flagship graphics cards when they either get one of the shittier "Lucky" designs and/or a card that has visibly gone through multiple returns .

That said, I'm personally really interested in the Suprim Liquid. I built a new PC in 2024 with a Corsair 6500D Airflow case and the original plan was to install my Alphacool Eisbaer 360 AiO in the side and exhaust fans in the top. That did not work out because the tubing of the Alphacool is too short! The 6500D case even has two install options, one directly at the side panel and a recessed one, but the tubing was too short, even for the recessed position.

So I had to install the Alphacool Eisbaer AiO in the top of the case which left the side empty as I see no use for exhaust or intake fans in the side... so I have been considering to make good use of that side panel space with a GPU radiator ever since.

I definitely like the design of the Suprim Liquid. Looks like it has fairly low (or even no?) RGB on the radiator which would be a huge plus for me. To me, at least, it looks a lot more attractive than the ASUS Astral liquid model.

I won't be a super-early adopter but will wait until pricing and availability has settled in. I hope that the Suprim Liquid can be had for €2500 max by March/April or so.

I highly doubt it, considering how Nvidia bragged about how they already sold every server AI accelerator they can make in 2025.

I imagine all the "RTX AI accelerators" will be made in limited quantities (as not to interfere with production of real money makers), so they will be scarce like in the times of cryptomadness (with all the markups, and selling behind the counter by the pallets etc.).

Holy cow, that Vanguard card is HUGE! Founders Edition is a 2 slot, flat and subtle and .. this? Just why on earth..???

Ps. That motto (below the picture) is incomplete - they should add at the end "& Your Truck".

Those SUPRIM cards are always so tasteful, love them.

$1000 Ventus RTX 5080 ....

I have to say I have had 4 MSI video cards over the last 16 years and only 1 has let me down. Not because it stopped working but because one of the fans failed . A simple ghetto mod fixed that till I could get a replacement . Other then that all 4 cards have been phenomenal. The oldest card a GTX 275 is still being used in a basic computer and still works as it should

 

[resulnaki99]

Yeah i saw. Definitely getting the suprim. Surprised no it's not suprim x, though i don't remember if 4090 had just a Suprim edition. I thought "x"was the oc edition, i could def be wrong.

 

[duraz0rz]

Nice that they put the tubes on the end of the GPU for the Suprim Liquid vs on the top, and it looks like they upgraded the radiator from 240mm to 360mm. I currently have the 4090 version of it and it's the quietest part of my system.

 

[Legacy-ZA]

The fact that the centre fan rotates in the same direction as the outer fans, is enough for me not to buy them, going to look elsewhere for my RTX5070Ti.

Yep. The 'X' had higher clocks (more OCed than the regular Suprim). I am also wondering why they seemingly dropped the 'X' model. Is the Vanguard the 'Suprim X' now? Will 'X' versions with higher clocks come later? Inquiring minds would like to know!

Ai everywhere lol
it's not going to make card cheaper, faster or less power hungry

Anyway
