MSI lists 12 new RTX 50 cards, including the VENTUS Project Zero and DUKE 3X Plus series
No, there is not a single SUPER SKU on this list. We have not seen much happening on the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) site for months. That usually means we are past the middle of the product cycle and board partners are either waiting for something new, or they have already released many new cards.
This update is quite boring to say the least. There are 8 new cards, but they are not the highly anticipated Special Edition models that MSI showcased at Computex. No word on those yet. This update is for the DUKE series . MSI will be rolling out new PLUS models, all carrying 3X in the name. This means they all use a triple-fan design.
The company will have OC and non-OC models, as well as white and black variants. Unfortunately, the EEC listing does not explain what PLUS means. Typically this refers to some changes to the coolers (either making them thicker or thinner) or an update to clocks.

This EEC listing also mentions VENTUS BLACK and VENTUS PZ series . The former is a Newegg-exclusive series that we covered recently, hitting some of the lowest prices among MSI cards. The PZ models stand for Project Zero, a hidden power connector design.

We still look forward to MSI announcing its Special Edition models, as well as the Cyclone with an OLED panel . There were also some SUPRIM models on display. Let’s see if those were production cards or just showpieces, similar to ASUS’ Dhahab ROG Astral series.
