Garbage desktop and I own an Aurora R10. If you can get it one on sale for $1200 then it offsets the other issues of the Alienware desktops which are pretty much trash with their proprietary parts and design. Thermals on these machines are bad and now unless you configure the system yourself, Alienware is now shipping most of their desktops without Liquid Cooling unless you buy a top end PC.

That said their laptops are cutting edge but they are pricy.

I never mentioned 3080? I said if you can find a $1200 build on sale from a flash sale those aren't too bad. My build came with a Ryzen 3800X, 1000w PSU w/ Liquid cooling, RTX 2070 Super, 512GB NVME, Wifi 6, 8GB of RAM for around $1250.
