Nvidia nor MSI offer a gaming bundle with this model
compromised performance a little to hit the pricing sweet spot

eats away only two slots
tells us there is no support for ray tracing
market becomes quite a busy
complicated space
the buffer gets dumped to slower off-card memory
not as nice looking as the GAMING X card
