Thieves stole $ 340,000 worth of RTX 3090 graphics cards

Technoportal Tom's Hardware said that attackers stole 220 NVIDIA RTX 3090 video cards from the Chinese MSI plant. Their total cost is estimated at $ 340,000.

According to representatives of the aforementioned publication, MSI is suspected of stealing plant employees. Now the scene is under investigation with police assistance. A $ 15,000 award has been announced for the location of the NVIDIA RTX 3090. In addition, MSI promised not to press charges or punish the attackers who stole the video cards if they return the stolen property.

Kidnapping at the MSI factory is not the only crime committed in the PC gaming industry in recent years. Recently in the UK, a group of criminals stole a batch of PlayStation 5 from a truck while driving, as in the movie "Fast and Furious".
