Buying a 2070 Super

I have the kfa2 and no complaints whatsoever. Its a great boost coming from my 980ti. Not the best clocker, but I have it stable at +100/+850
 
Don’t spend £550 that’s too much as otherwise you might as well spend £620 on the 2080 Super Black Friday deal from MSI that’s still running.

Otherwise KFA2 at £450 or my advice would be get the Gigabyte 2070 Super Gaming 3X at £475

It if you really want a flagship 2070 Super get the Aorus 2070 Suoer at £525 which is based on 2080 PCB.
 
Thx Gibbo
Funnily enough I’ve got that page open now and looking at the Aorus. Is it worth the extra £ compared to the Gigabyte?. So much choice!!

Cheers

Hi

Why not 5700XT and save £200? There is barely any difference between the 2 with the latest 19.12.2 drivers.

You didn't said you are using gsync monitor. Which model is it?
Asking because if it has module yes isn't compatible, if it doesn't have module is compatible as actually using VESA Adaptive sync.

If you give us the monitor model you have we can let you know.
 
MSi Gaming X-Trio, gone down to £500, a cracker of a card, cool, quiet, and cracking performance, or theres the Gaming X for a bit cheaper, with the only difference being its a 2x fan, instead of a 3x.
 
Got the msi gaming x duo version, slightly smaller but does the job equally as well. Can be had now for under £500 on here.
 
i went for the Palit gamerock, very impressed, runs cool and silent.

I saw it get to 62 degrees once when running flat out :)

The Palit are actually one of the quietest and coolest 2070 Supers on market, cracking cooler on them.
 
Hi
So I went for the Aorus 2070 super in the end. The card arrived today but I haven't installed yet. Someone I game with online asked whether or not I had made sure that the gpu was compatible with the motherboard. I have an Asus Sabertooth X99 and just assumed that because they both have PCIe 3.0 everything would be OK.

Is there anything to worry about here?

Cheers

According to a few sites on a quick Google search.. Your Motherboard will be compatible with the 2070S...

Good choice BTW, I love Gigabyte components :cool:
