MSI GeForce RTX 5090 32G GDDR7 LIGHTNING Z Graphics Card
The MSI GeForce RTX™ 5090 32G LIGHTNING Z is not just a graphics card; it is a masterpiece of engineering designed for those who refuse to compromise. Forged for extreme performance and record-breaking overclocking, the LIGHTNING Z returns to claim its throne as the world’s most powerful consumer GPU. Powered by the groundbreaking NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, this card delivers a level of AI-enhanced realism and raw speed that was previously thought impossible.
Unprecedented Power & Performance
- Next-Gen Blackwell Architecture: Featuring 21,760 CUDA cores and the latest 4th Gen Ray Tracing cores, the RTX 5090 LIGHTNING Z handles path tracing and 8K gaming with ease.
- 32GB GDDR7 Memory: Equipped with a massive 32GB of high-speed GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit bus, providing an incredible 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth for the most demanding AI workloads and creative projects.
- Extreme Clock Speeds: Push past the limits with a boost clock of 2730 MHz, reaching up to 2775 MHz via MSI Center’s Extreme Performance profile.
Revolutionary Hybrid Cooling Solution
To manage its immense power, the LIGHTNING Z features a reimagined liquid cooling system:
- Full-Cover Copper Cold Plate: A precision-engineered plate that covers the GPU, VRAM, and MOSFETs, ensuring every critical component stays cool during marathon sessions.
- 360mm Hybrid-Fin Radiator: A unique radiator design that alternates between dense and sparse fin sections to create hot and cold zones, maximizing heat exchange and airflow.
- Next-Gen Advanced Pump: Delivers higher pressure and optimized coolant flow for sustained peak performance.
- LIGHTNING Fans: Crafted from Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) for maximum rigidity and aerodynamic efficiency.
World-First Integrated 8-Inch Display
The centerpiece of the card’s aesthetic is a fully integrated 8-inch LCD screen. This world-first feature allows you to monitor real-time system vitals (clocks, temps, usage) or personalize your rig with custom animations and videos directly on the GPU shroud.
Engineered for Extreme Overclockers
- Dual 16-Pin Connectors: To support its staggering 1000W Extreme Mode, the card features two native 12V-2x6 power connectors, ensuring stable power delivery for the most aggressive overclocks.
- 40-Phase Power Design: Built on a custom 14-layer PCB with 3oz thickened copper, the VRM solution is designed to handle extreme electrical loads without breaking a sweat.
- Carbon Fiber Backplate: A rigid, premium carbon fiber backplate provides structural strength and a sleek, technical finish.
