MSI GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Gaming X Slim MLG 12 GB Graphics Card Review – Slim & Anime

Hassan Mujtaba

Conclusion - For Anime Lovers!

There are a lot of unique graphics cards being offered by each manufacturer and more recently, we have seen companies start to adopt anime themes due to the increasing popularity of the genre. This has led manufacturers to adopt fancy new designs and MSI is also joining the bandwagon with its offerings. The company already offers its EVANGELION-inspired lineup which comes with a huge range of components to select from but that has been missing a graphics card. The company did have its Hololive series but kicked up its anime-inspired VGA designs with the MLG series.

As far as looks go, the MSI MLG series GPUs feature the same iconic Gaming X cooling design in its newer SLIM variation which has a slimmer 2-slot footprint with the same cooling capabilities that offered us temps under 60C with exceptional noise levels. The red and black theme is also a throwback to the iconic MSI Gaming lineup from a few years back which gives the MLG series its very own identity.

In terms of performance, the MSI GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Gaming X SLIM MLG has the highest boost clock of the variants that we tested and that offered a 5% bump in performance which was mostly notable at lower resolutions of 1080p and 1440p. This is what the majority of users will be playing games at when running the 4070 SUPER. You can get the graphics card running at up to 3 GHz on the same cooling solution with ease and that can yield extra performance. The 250W power limit also allows for some overclocking room but the card is already hitting its peak potential that you'd hardly have to push it further.

MSI's GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Gaming X SLIM MLG is a solid and high-end gaming solution that is perfect for 1080p gaming. While AMD has made this space more competitive with its new pricing for the RX 7900 GRE and RX 7800 XT, the RTX 4070 SUPER still holds the edge in all regards, making it a great choice for RTX gamers. And if you're a fan of all things anime, then you have a card that also matches your taste.
