Hi guys,
I am in the middle of a new build (listed below) I was planning to drop in a 2070 super. Obviously thinking the new 3000 GPUs were going to be more expensive. After the announcement it now turns out I can afford to drop in the 3080 to get 4K 60 or more (happy days!).
But I’m wondering if it would work ok with the parts I have already purchased or if the new card even fits? Possibly a hard one to answer as the card is not out yet??
I was planning on the build last year but it had to be delayed due to funds going elsewhere.
current items are as follows:
3080 (hopefully fits and works with the above)?
If anyone is curious, the parts bought for me we’re from the wife.....she’s a keeper lol
It’s my first PC build for gaming/work/multitasking/upload and some streaming, bit of an all rounder. I knew the 2070 super would fit and run well from other builds/reviews I have read/seen but I’m unsure if the 3080 would and would like advise before I complete the remaining purchases.
Any help/guidance appreciated, total rookie so please go easy if it’s a stupid question. Also the 3700x was selected due to funds remaining.
