MSI Cancels RTX 3060 Ti Super 3X Model, Reportedly Due to Confusing Branding

MSI Suprim Graphics Card

According to a Tweet by @HKEPC, Nvidia has forced MSI to recall its RTX 3060 Ti G6X Super 3X graphics card model one week after the company launched the product in China. Apparently, the "super" nomenclature was too similar to Nvidia's own Super nomenclature found in its refreshed RTX 20 series GPUs and would make people believe this RTX 3060 Ti is a new RTX 30 series SKU rather than a new AIB partner model.

It is understandable why MSI canceled this card due to its confusing nomenclature. But, strangely, the company waited until after the SKU launched before taking action. If we had to speculate, Nvidia could be making another Super refresh of its RTX 30- or RTX 40-series GPUs, which would interfere with MSI's nomenclature.
