Earlier today, we reported a story on MSI increasing the price of its GeForce RTX 4090 SUPRIM Liquid X graphics card from its $1,750 MSRP to $1,935 in just a week following its market availability (more importantly, just a week after the card heaped praise for being a well-priced custom flagship product). This development first appeared on Reddit, where keen-eyed Redditor Jmulcahey spotted the price-hike first. The $1,935 price appeared on the company's US online store (a first-party retailer), where any changes in prices are taken to be changes in the MSRP.

MSI responded to the development, saying that the increased price on the MSI US online store was the result of a miscommunication, that the MSRP of the RTX 4090 SUPRIM Liquid X remains at $1,750; and more importantly, that the company will refund the price-difference to anyone who purchased the card at the increased price of $1,935 (i.e. a $185 refund). The company released a statement to TechPowerUp, which we are posting verbatim below.
