First look: Custom Nvidia 50-series and Radeon 9070 graphics cards

CES is kind of huge this year. We’ve got big new announcements from almost every major PC company, including new GPUs from both Nvidia and (to an admittedly lesser extent) AMD. And their OEM partners are showing off their stuff on the floor, too. MSI has Nvidia cards, Gigabyte has both of them, and Adam Patrick Murray got to check them all out.

First up we’ve got MSI’s incoming lineup of RTX 50 series cards, including the Gaming Trio, Vanguard, and Suprim variants. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Gigabyte is also showing off new Nvidia cards, including a few that confirm to the SFF (small form factor) standard revealed last year. Considering how huge GPUs are getting in general, I’m sure a lot of home builders will appreciate it. There’s also a waterblock for the liquid-cooled version of the 5090.

Gigabyte is one of the few vendors that have early samples of AMD’s next-gen Radeon cards, which top out at the RX 9070 XT. There’s an Elite version of the high-end card Gaming OC version of the RX 9070.

So that’s a look at what the new cards will, well, look like. For more technical breakdowns of the latest graphics cards, check out our writeups of the RTX 50 series and Radeon 9000 series. For more glimpses at the CES show floor, be sure to subscribe to PCWorld on YouTube.
