• I put mine in a XPS. Check your power supply. I had to upgrade mine. Also it gets warm, so I had to add an extra fan. You will need to install the appropriate driver's.

• Your 8700 is more than enough to run this card, I have a ryzen 7 2700x and it’s just pumping the frames out.

• Hello, the only important things you need to worry about is the PCI Express version and power supply. If your motherboard supports PCI express 3.0 or better and you have a power supply with at least 400 or more, it should be fine, though 500 or more is recommended.
