When going through chat you can do various upgrades. Some of these are:
Keep the stock 550W PSU and add AIO Watercooling (+$50)
Upgrade to 1000W PSU and add AIO Watercooling (+$200)
Add Killer NIC Wifi 6 Wireless Card (~+$20-$30)
There's more upgrades available. See the non-deal version of the R10 for possible upgrades here [dell.com] and rough prices.

NOTE: Dell's Memory used in this system is a PROPRIETARY MODEL manufacturered by Kingston. As such, if you want more than 16GB, you'll likely need to either purchase more memory from Dell or replace all of the memory with retail memory; NO MIX OR MATCH.
See this post for Memory Info (Thanks quantecipher! Make sure to give them rep!): https://slickdeals.net/f/14826469-1200-begins-02-11-alienware-aurora-r10-desktop-3700x-rtx-3070-16gb-ram-512gb-nvme?v=1&p=1452
Stock Dell memory seems overpriced for what it is and many users highly suggest, if upgrading to 32GB, to buy your own 32GB kit that's compatible with this PC instead of buying 32GB through Dell. See post on memory again since not all memory modules are stable with the R10 system.
Hope that helps!

When people are saying it's not upgradable they're referring to the case right? What would stop you from putting the parts in another case and upgrading later?
If someone could explain I'd appreciate it so I know going forward. Thank you

if you're playing at 1440p or higher, the difference in performance will be negligible for vast majority of the games.
if you could literally not obtain an item at anything lower than, say, 20% above MSRP, then people will jump at the item at MSRP. if you don't think that's a deal and you'd rather wait, then you do you, but your opinion will not change the fact that demand is high and people will pay more.

i believe there are plenty of youtube channels that will tear these down and look at them more closely. linus tech tips did several videos comparing a bunch of desktops from various OEMs/boutique companies. it was more a holistic approach - value, customer service, etc., but pretty informative. i don't remember if alienware was included, though.
