Just wondering if my setup would be okay to use an RTX 2070. Current only have a GTX 960 so I've wanted to upgrade and it seems waiting has paid off with the RTX line coming out.
CPU: Intel i7-7700k CPU @4.2GHz
RAM: 16GB
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z270P-D3-CF
PSU: I think its 750W, I'd have to take it out to find out as there is seemingly no stickers

My main concern is the motherboard compatibility as I'm not 100% what makes a GPU compatible, whether its just the slots it needs or if there is more to it than that.
An answer with an explanation would be well appreciated!
 
Solution
Yes, your setup is compatible with a 2070. Your motherboard has a PCIe x16 slot running at PCIe 3.0 bandwidth. A PCIe x16 slot is what you need to run a 2070. Your CPU is more than capable of the GPU as well and you have plenty of RAM.
