I am getting a 2070 super soon.  I told my friends and one of them asked me if it was compatible with my motherboard.  I have never thought of that and wanted to make sure it was... Im not very good with computers so sry if i cant explain it very well but I have an ASRock H87WSA-DL motherboard i think.  Im pretty sure that it will work i just wanted to make sure thanks :D

Yes

Make sure your power supply is adequate

The motherboard is compatible (it has a PCIE 3.0 x16 slot, which the RTX 2070 Super uses. Even if the 2070S used a newer PCIE standard, it would still work).

It's more about your PSU and case being fit for the videocard.

ok thanks :D

im planing to upgrade more parts of my pc so what would you recommend for a 2070 super, ryzen 7, and something like 16 GB of 3600?  Also I was going to get the things in this order gpu, psu, motherboard and cpu, ram.  Would i need to change the order?  Right now I have a 450 watt power supply and I pretty much only play minecraft.

You should get a new power supply as well. Unless for some reason that 450w unit is one of the absolute best

 

However: if you only play minecraft: why a 2070S?

Do you play on Bedrock? If you dont, get it, because you could play with RTX on.

I could use some help with this!
