Hi Together I have two questions: I'm building a new PC, but for budget reasons I'd like to keep the "old" GPU from the previous one for the time being. This is a GTX 1070, is that possible or is it no longer compatible? Second question: what is the difference to the MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge Wifi, or is the CHF 80 difference currently justified? Thanks for the help

Hello Gregfruit

Again to question2: The MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge Wifi has more.
+2 SATA-III ports
+1 PCI Express x1
HDMI V2.0 (against Carbon with 1.4)
Ethernet controller Realtek instead of Intel
no 802.11 ax WiFi support
2 RGB headers (Carbon has 3)
Carbon has additional RGB cables

Hello Gregfruit
Question 1: Your GPU is basically compatible. However, you must observe the following (according to the instructions):

1x PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16 slot (PCI_E1)
-> 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen™ support PCIe 4.0 x16 mode
-> 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen™ support PCIe 3.0x16 mode
-> Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics and 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Graphics support PCIe 3.0 x8 mode

Question2: Use the comparison function of digitec....
