Yes, they are compatible. Any z390 motherboard will be compatible with that GPU. You just need to make sure you get a 8th or 9th gen Intel CPU to work on that board. GPU compatibility is not an issue.

Use pcpartpicker.com for help with compatibility and your build.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from deetroh : "Difference between 2070 and 2070 overclocked version?"

Hi, I'm a noobie in gpu's, I know that the overclocked version is overclocked at factory state. I don't know if I can change that to non-overclocked or not.

I plan to buy this GPU, I wanna play 4k games, but not heavily like everyday or anything. Just casual gaming every once in a while, also I do plan on editing alot of video and rendering. My question is what are the main differences between these two cards? What best fits my needs? Is it worth it to buy the overclocked version? Thanks in advance!

"I don't know if I can change that to non-overclocked or not."

i dont understand what you mean by this. You want to buy the overclocked one and underclock it?

Or are you saying you want to buy the non overclocked one and overclock it yourself?

In answer to the second part, buy the non clocked version and you can overclock it yourself if you need to, which you dont as the gains will be minimal and unnoticeable.

Is it possible to underclock an overclocked gpu?
And I dont want to do any manual overclocking if I dont need to. At my needs for 4k gaming and 4k video editing is overclocking even needed?

If you can afford it, go with the overclocked version. (also if you dont plan on overclocking). Since its overclocked at the factory, there are no worries about user caused warranty denial. You might not tell a huge difference if your were able to run them side by side but faster is always better

If you're gaming at 4k, you'll want as much GPU power as you can get.
