I do like the idea, but yeah I agree having it on LMG clips would make much more sense. And they need to add a more clear indicator of it not actually being live because I see a lot of people confused in the live chat and that's likely why it has like a 90% like rating, which is lower than usual for them.

Yeah I'll try seeing if I can get the invoice for it, no clue where it is at the moment though.

All good. I checked to see what the model name was in sysinfo and it just said "Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition", which sadly is not enough considering how many iterations of this PC there are.

Also on here it says the memory is only 2933 MHz but mine is 3200 MHz (unless it is overclocked, which it might be idk)

Yeah true, the case is pretty big though so I don't think I'll have too many clearance issues.

I don't think sysinfo tells you anything about the power supply, but I could be wrong. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/questions/alienware-gaming-desktop-amd-ryzen-7-series-3700x-16gb-memory-amd-radeon-rx-5700-xt-1tb-hdd-512gb-ssd-black/6398141?page=2 This one seems like the exact one I have, but I also have 1tb SSD instead of 512gb and I don't know if this one is liquid cooled like mine (yeah it's air cooled. Again though, pretty similar specs). Other that than thought it seems pretty similar. Some guy on there (I think it is from dell themselves) said it had a 500W power supply, and that seems to line up with other things I researched (I heard you either had 500W or 1000W)

I'm having a hard time finding the specs for the PSU, because stupid Dell doesn't print labels on their PSUs, making it much harder than it needs to be.

What I'll probably just do then is keep my CPU, upgrade the graphics card, memory, possibly, which will help me wait it out until I can afford a new computer. Definitely not going to make this mistake again.

https://www.dell.com/community/Alienware-Desktops/Aurora-R10-BIOS-2-3-1-did-Alienware-do-something-right/td-p/8247953 Seems that dell just hates their customers. None of the BIOS updates come with new AGESA, all these people are complaining about it, too. What a waste.

I did get the better liquid cooling, which is a good thing as it seems like the stock cooling sucks.

Yeah, that lines up with what I've seen.

Yeah, I looked it up and it says that 2.4.1 is the latest BIOS and that I already installed it. Is there a way to install a new version of AGESA on its own, or is that not possible?

Good to know that I can update it in the future then. Yeah, getting a 3080 could be beneficial. I'll check out the 6800 too though just so I know my options. Thanks!

That's strange, because I literally just updated it using Dell's software. Let me check out that link and I'll get back to you.

Pretty sure it's this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/304849971835
