Price and availability

With everything you see above, the MSI Trident 3 as configured runs for $1,499 (about £1,160, AU$2,040). This particular unit MSI sent us is a limited-edition Arctic version of the Trident 3, which comes with a special white paint job and a Nvidia GTX 1070 you’ll only find on this model.
