Questions about this item

Will this card fit in a standard dual-slot space and what power connector does it need?

The card uses a dual-slot plug-in card form factor and draws power through a single 6-pin PCIe connector from your PSU.

Which video outputs are available for connecting monitors or VR headsets?

You get one HDMI, three DisplayPort and one dual-link DVI port, covering most modern displays and headsets.

Is 3 GB of GDDR5 enough for 1080p gaming at high settings?

The 3 GB frame buffer on a 192-bit bus handles 1080p high settings well in most titles, though texture-heavy games may need medium textures.
