This is MSI 5090 Lightning Z, they only made 1300, it has an 8 inch screen and is fully liquid cooled 👀👀. This baby can draw up to 1000w on its own 🥲🥲🥲🥴 thats insane!

I bet you didn't know what's inside this one... a single GPU. Now we saw this at CES and it's actually a big deal because MSI hasn't made a Lightning card in seven years and they only made 1300 of these. I need your help lifting this, it's so heavy. Oh my god. Thank you. This is MSI's RTX 5090 Lightning Z. Quick recap, it's got an 8 inch display, fully liquid cooled with a 360 rad, dual power connectors and it can draw up to 1000 watts on its own. That's more power than most people's entire PC. Now, Lightning cards are built for heavy overclocking. This one's got a custom PCB, plus dual BIOS with OC and extreme modes. Definitely way more powerful than a normal GPU. Now, I'm not keeping this for myself, okay? I already have a few 5090s, so I'm going to build a close friend of mine his dream PC. I mean, MSI did say I could do whatever I wanted with it, so, uh, you can't take it back now, MSI. It's mine! So, the plan is to drop all these parts from MSI into the beautiful Maestro case. It's got a full panoramic glass panel, perfect for showing off that 8 inch screen on the GPU. And I'm also going to make some futuristic decals with yellow accents to fit the vibe using my new $30,000 printer. My wallet isn't happy. And I'm also going to laser cut a 360mm Lightning fan shroud with some black and yellow accents. So, lots to do. Let's get to work.
