Circuit Board (PCB) Analysis
MSI is using four phases for the GPU voltage, which is controlled by an OnSemi NCP81610 controller. The ferrite-core chokes are mated with OnSemi NCP302045 DrMOS.
The memory VRM is 2-phase and managed by a UPI uP1666Q controller.
The GDDR6 memory chips are made by Micron and carry the model number D9WCW, which decodes to MT61K256M32JE-14:A. They are specified to run at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps GDDR6 effective).
NVIDIA's TU116 graphics processor is the company's first chip with the Turing architecture that does not include Tensor cores or ray-tracing acceleration. It is produced on a 12 nm process at TSMC, Taiwan and has a transistor count of 6.6 billion with a die size of 284 mm².
