Considering how often I’ve had to write about tariffs in the last few months, it’s no surprise that there’s a wave of lovingly retro hardware coming out of Computex 2025.
Like SilverStone, MSI is hopping on the retro bus with new GPU designs, marrying new RTX 50-series chips with coolers that look like they’re straight outta the aughts. PCWorld’s Adam Patrick Murray got to check them out on the show floor.
The RTX 5060 Ti “Twin Frozr 2 Retro Edition” is probably the more practical of the pair, with twin fans and an exposed heatsink, and should fit into just about any gaming PC build with minimal issues. But the more stunning of the pair is the RTX 5070 Cyclone, with a single fan dispersing heat through a massive copper heatsink. It’s a style you might remember from the GTX 400 series, waaaay back in 2010. The only bow to modernity is an LCD screen hidden on the interior hub of the fan.
Sadly, these designs are both one-offs, and MSI isn’t committing to building them for retail products. If you want to see it in reality, you’ll need to let MSI know and GET IN THE COMMENTS.
