Question 1

Does this come with a display port cable?

Accepted Answer

No it does not. Usually monitors come with display ports or other connections

Question 2

Does this come with a display port cable?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately it does not, I had to order one to hook the card up to my 1440p monitor. The good news is Display Port cables are pretty cheap; I would recommend just ordering one along with the card

Question 3

Is this VR ready?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this card is definitely capable of VR - this is essentially a stronger version of a GTX 1080. It should easily handle the majority of VR titles currently available.  Whether or not this card is the most cost-efficient GPU for you depends on your needs and your budget, but within its price-range it's the clear king of the hill at the moment.  This is an absurdly powerful GPU - just make sure the rest of your system is strong enough to keep up with it!

Question 4

Does this card support NVLink Sli?

Accepted Answer

Although I haven't done it myself, from what I've read, these cards can connect to another RTX 2070, same brand I'm assuming, via NVLink. The RTX cards do not support SLI

Question 5

I just bought this card. It came with instructions on installing a support bracket, but there was no bracket in the box. Did anyone actually get the bracket? I’m definitely concerned about the card sagging.

Accepted Answer

I didn't get a bracket with mine, I don't know about other people though.
I have had the card for about 6 months I beleive and have not had any issues with card sag however if you are concerned about it then getting a support wouldn't have any harm

Question 6

Is the VGA MSI | RTX 2070 ARMOR 8G R suitable for VR gaming?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the MSI GeForce RTX 2070 ARMOR 8G OC is suitable for VR gaming. It is mentioned as VR-ready and provides high-performance hardware necessary for an impressive VR experience.

Question 7

Is the gpu an 8 + 6 pin?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I was able to use the same power supply cable that previously supported my GTX 970, making the swap to the 2070 that much easier.

Question 8

will the usb-c port drive a monitor? i have a cintiq pro 16 and want to utilize the 4k resolution which can only be done via usb-c.

Accepted Answer

The USB port on the GPU works as well as any USB-c port elsewhere on your PC. I have not used mine for driving a monitor, but if the Cintiq supports 4K via usb it should work just fine with the port on the 2070

Question 9

What is the difference between this and the less expensive MSI 2070 ventus card?

Accepted Answer

The heatsink is bigger on this one. It will likely therefore run a bit cooler/quieter.

Question 10

Does this card have warranty?

Accepted Answer

Yes, "Limited Warranty period (parts): 3 years".  This is listed under warranties and returns
