Question 1

How does the VGA MSI|RTX 4070 SUPER 12G GAMING X SLIM R perform in high graphics settings?

Accepted Answer

The MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB GDDR6X is highly praised for its exceptional 1440p performance, offering a good price to performance ratio and effective ray tracing capabilities. Users find it to be a solid choice for gaming at high graphics settings, although there are limitations in VRAM capacity for 4K gaming.

Question 2

Would this GPU be compatible with a B450 MOBO and a 850 Gold PWS?

Accepted Answer

Your PSU will be fine for this GPU without a doubt, but whether or not your MOBO + CPU supports PCIe Gen 4 will determine if your system can fully utilize this GPU.  If your CPU + MOBO don't support PCIe Gen 4, you'll be running at PCIe 3.0 x16 speeds, so it's not the end of the world and should still be a sizable upgrade over what you're running now.
