Built for 1440p gaming and content creation

The MSI RTX 2070 GAMING 8G uses the GeForce RTX 2070 GPU with 2304 CUDA cores. A base clock of 1410 MHz and boost clock of 1620 MHz drive 8GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus at 14 Gbps. The card connects via PCI Express 3.0 x16 and supports DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5.

Output flexibility for multi-monitor setups

Three DisplayPort 1.4 ports, one HDMI 2.0b port and a USB Type-C connector handle up to four displays at a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320. This suits sim racers, streamers and professionals who need several screens. Users targeting 4K high-refresh gaming or heavy ray-tracing workloads should consider a higher-tier GPU with more memory.

8GB GDDR6 decides 1440p headroom

The 8GB frame buffer on a 256-bit interface is the specification that determines whether this card fits your workload. It provides enough capacity for high-texture 1440p gaming and typical creative tasks, while 4K gaming with maximum texture packs will often exceed the available memory.

Questions about this item

Will the PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface work with my older motherboard that only has PCIe 2.0 slots?

The card uses a PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface and is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0 motherboards, though bandwidth will be limited to the older standard.

How can I verify the 1620 MHz boost clock is active after installation?

Use GPU monitoring software to observe the core frequency under load; it should reach 1620 MHz when the GeForce RTX 2070 is fully utilised.

Does the box include cables for the 1 x HDMI 2.0b and 3 x DisplayPort 1.4 outputs, or must I buy them separately?

The graphics card provides the ports themselves; any HDMI or DisplayPort cables required for your monitors must be purchased separately.
