MSI has publicly addressed a problem with the initial BIOS of its RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16G VENTUS 3X graphics card and issued a formal apology to users. The acknowledgment follows feedback from various overseas media outlets, revealing that the MSI RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16G VENTUS 3X media cards provided for review had performance issues. NVIDIA officially notified less than two days before the scheduled review release that the graphics card exhibited lower-than-expected performance, with a reported 5% deficit.
MSI has already provided an update with a fix
It was reported that under the original BIOS version 95.03.45.40.58, the MSI RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16G VENTUS 3X showed negligible performance improvement compared to the RTX 4070 Ti. Despite MSI’s initial BIOS update (version 95.03.45.40.DC), NVIDIA stated that the graphics card’s performance was still “3% lower than expected figures.”
In response, MSI swiftly released another BIOS update, version 95.03.45.40.F0, aiming to bring the card’s performance in line with its competitors. However, concerns were raised about the timing of the second update. Some media outlets, such as KitGuru, reportedly received the update only two hours before the review embargo was lifted, preventing them from incorporating the new data into their evaluations.
MSI has since issued an official statement acknowledging that the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16G VENTUS 3X graphics card “cannot fully realize its potential.” The company expressed sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused and promptly released new BIOS updates for all RTX 4070 Ti SUPER graphics cards, addressing the performance issues.
