We-ve got your back
A sturdy backplate helps to strengthen the graphics card and complements the design to look even better
Dragon Center
To improve the experience with MSI software, we have embarked on a quest to consolidate as much of our software as possible into one unified suite. We are excited to share the first version of this gargantuan project which will be known as Dragon Center.
Eventually Dragon Center will be the only MSI software you need to install for full functionality of your MSI Desktop, Graphics Card, Motherboard or even Gaming Gear. Thanks to a modular concept, the application will automatically detect new MSI hardware once added. Based on the hardware in your system it will offer the relevant software drivers for your specific setup.

Sweetspot for 1080p
Decent enough for 1440p with some compromises in certain fps consuming technologies
Not suitable for 4K
Also, the 6gb VRAM version is not future proof.
The card is very good, I mainly use it for 4K gaming with a Ryzen 5 3400G processor. I had no issues with temperature as it stays below 73 degrees while playing demanding games at 4K. The tower I have is mid-sized and fits comfortably
It was purchased at the regular price of 360 euros when it first came out before prices inflated. For that money, it is a decent choice for 2k 60+ fps gaming with high settings. Under no circumstances for 4k unless you settle for 40 fps or accept playing with low settings. With the money it currently has, forget about it and be patient to buy a PS5 or Xbox X as soon as you find it available for the same amount. You will have some money left over for a second controller.
Good morning/good evening depending on the time it is being read, this card was purchased in June 2021 for 530 euros. The truth is that I came from an RX 550 and I thought I would spend the money to change the experience, since everything on medium-low or high in some 1080p titles was unbearable. The difference for me at 1080p was day and night, everything ultra with very few AAA exceptions, the temperatures for me are perfect (up to 65C at 1080p) (it reaches 77C at highest 4K), currently it is paired with a Ryzen 3 3100 (which will need to be replaced when the 5600 drops to 280) and it handles it well. The auto overclock it does makes it unnecessary for a beginner to change anything, as if you change something you will gain up to 7% according to what I observed, which is fair, but not enough to be necessary. The plastic backplate is solid and gives it a unique beauty, even though it loses the extra cooling of metal. After buying a 4K monitor, I concluded that it doesn't run everything on ultra anymore, but it still runs on medium-high and ultra in many titles, and in titles that have DLSS or adaptive quality it runs quite satisfactorily without losing much in terms of visuals. The power draw I observed is at 160W under load, without manual OC. Now, the software that comes with it, MSI's, is terrible, never use it for anything other than making fun of it on Reddit or taking pictures with your phone and showing it to other manufacturers so they know what to avoid. The card would be much better if it had RGB on the sides to highlight a nice white color, for example, but luckily it doesn't have it because then I would have to download the Dragon Center with MSI Mystic Light, just writing that makes me want to take the SSD and wash it because something like that happened to it once. In terms of size, it fits in 90% of cases, if not all, since it is a dual fan and not triple. It's a decent card that, if purchased at a normal price (max 350-400), will make you sleep well at night knowing you didn't lose 196 gyros. A fair 5 because if it had been purchased at MSRP, I would have been very happy and I can't judge this card due to the current situation.
Use gaming. Although I was a little hesitant, the card is actually quite powerful. (Generally speaking) It reaches 60fps in 4K with graphics set to low-medium. In 2K, it exceeds 60fps on high-ultra settings. For FHD, it is overkill. In terms of temperatures, after 4 hours of heavy gaming in 4K, it never went above 75°. If the price was around 300-350€, it would be perfect! But it was purchased for 560€
