As per the trend, soon after Nvidia’s announcement of the RTX 4060 and 4060 Ti SKUs, MSI announced their cards that will be based on the 4060 families of SKUs.
MSI announced four distinct designs for the cards, each coming in the RTX 4060Ti 8GB Variant: the GAMING TRIO and GAMING series and the cost-effective VENTUS 3x and VENTUS 2X series. One offering will have the stock clock frequencies and the other will have to be overclocked, making it a total of eight cards to be released.
The entire lineup of the cards announced by MSI:
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming Trio 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming X 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming X Trio 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Ventus 2X Black 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Ventus 2X Black OC 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Ventus 3X 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Ventus 3X OC 8G
The GAMING TRIO and the GAMING series balance performance, cooling, and low noise. This has come to be a favorite GPU for many gamers who spend hours playing graphic-intensive titles.
The TORX 5.0 design fans have three blades and an outer link to create a rim that focuses airflow into the updated TRI FROZR 3 and 9 cooling system.
Aesthetically, it’s as good as it gets. With a brushed metal backplate featuring a flow-through design that reduces trapped heat and Mystic Light that lights up the GPU from the outside, this series is sure to be a fan favorite for hardcore gamers who also have an eye for the aesthetics.
Coming to the Ventus series, we see a cost-effective yet sturdy and reliable performance. The Ventus series cards provide an excellent performance-to-price ratio.
The Ventus 3x comes with 3 TORX 4.0 fans, and the Ventus 2x comes with 2 of the same. The 2x has a new black look to it, which is sure to enhance the aesthetics of the build. The VENTUS series has the best exterior design as they’re built on the no-frills Spartan Design Philosophy.
Per the press release, each card will be accompanied by an overclocked version. The Gaming X cards will also be overclocked despite no OC in the product name.
Cards have also been revealed by GIGABYTE, Zotac, along with a limited Spider-Man: Across the SpiderVerse special edition.
The only big company that needs to be added to the list is ASUS. It is expected that there will be a large variety of models, just like MSI, and the options would include a dual-fan base model and will span right up to the premium ROG Strix tier.

The last time Log Horizon aired was on March 28, 2015. Since then fans have been waiting eagerly for the renewal of their beloved series.

III. Was season 2 any good?
Log Horizon has a plot like any other video game based anime, with a flexible environment and avatars that reflect its player.
Season 2 had several arcs, but with every episode covering multiple scenarios simultaneously, fans still thought the story paced at a snail’s speed.
The best part about season two was that the players actually put some effort into getting back to the real world. (Score-6.5)
