The first custom RTX 3090 Ti in Europe have crazy prices

It seems that PC enthusiasts must prepare for further exaggerated prices, as the first custom models of GeForce RTX</a> 3090 Ti video cards appeared in Europe. During the official presentation of the product earlier this month, NVIDIA had avoided sharing any information regarding price or availability. Recently, two models of MSI, specifically MSI RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM X and RTX 3090 Ti Gaming X Trio, were notified at a Swiss retailer offered, respectively, at a price of CHF 3,678.40 (€ 3,529.97) and 3,595. 30 CHF (3,450.24 €).

These price increases are quite surprising, as they reach an increase of up to 66% over previous models. Surely the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti will be more powerful than the RTX 3090, but an increase of this type can hardly be justified, even if the hope remains that they can only be "placeholder" prices.

As we have told you some week ago, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Founders Edition, the new flagship of the RTX 30 series, will offer more power, using a fully enabled GA102 GPU with 84 SM (Streaming Multiprocessor), for a total of 10,752 CUDA cores (remember that the previous RTX 3090 has 82 SM and 10,496 CUDA cores). Additionally, memory bandwidth should be improved with 24GB GDDR6X at 21Gb / s, offering denser ICs and halving the number of chips for more direct cooling. At the moment, the core frequencies have not yet been confirmed.
