Product: Omen Obelisk 875-0444nz
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi! I have an Omen Obelisk 875-044nz, with an Intel Core I7 8700, 16 gb of ram, and a 300w psu. I wanted to know if the RTX 3070 is compatible with it, or if I have to change something. DO it even fit in the case? I know I'll have to change my PSU to one that have minimum 750 watts. But do I need to change something else? Thanks

@LOZALgame,

Card length is the issue. Your still weeks away from seeing the specifications per manufacturer.  I do know the Zotac 3070 is 9.1" in length.  Your old PSU is a 300W, then RTX 3070 adds 220W.   I like your pick of a 750W, it will run more efficiently. Suggest you get the 750W, and install it.  Which you you pick ?

I think I'll take the Corsair CX Series™ CX750M — 750 Watt 80 PLUS® Bronze Certified Modular ATX PSU, but I'm not sure yet. Maybe if I find something cheaper, but still efficient. 

I'll regularly look at the informations about the card, and see if the founders edition passes. But it's great that the Zotac passes!

Thanks
