Mine said label created Monday night but no updates since, so I'm just curious.

Same with the odd tracking. I expected a left destination or something, but it looks like it is on the way and Fort Worth was my first scan (on the way to Florida)
- Fan is waaay undersized and there is only one, so that is first thing that needs to be corrected. There is only one case fan plug and one cpu fan plug so if you want ot add more than one case fan you will need a splitter.
- CPU cooler looks pathetic also. Saw some reviews of the unit on YT and people said it will run hot if you keep the stock cooler, so that is second thing to upgrade.
- The NVMe card is 2230 format but it does have space to allow a full size NVMe card.
- There is space and cabling for one full sized 3.5 drive and two 2.5 drives.
- There are 4 ram slots and yippiee, they actually used dual channel for the 16gb ram and not a single stick. Sticks were Micron 8gb DDR4 3200 part number MTA4ATF1G64AZ-3G2E1
- Power supply is 360W 80+ Bronze. I saw some reviews saying it was a 80+platinum but mine as shipped was only bronze.
- There is an open PCIe x1 slot and a PCIe x4 open on the motherboard, however the PCIe x4 looks like it is crowded out by the GPU card.
- Lastly the GPU only has a single fan. Even more reason to beef up case cooling fan.
I will update this post after I have booted the system up tonight and removed all the bloatware and run a few test on it before putting in upgrades.The following table lists the specifications of the discrete Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) supported by your G5 5000, I don't know if this implies only the listed GPU is supported.

I'm getting the feeling that this purchase was a mistake if you planned on selling the card.

However, I still want to find out what GPU not on the list will work though, or if the BIOS needs to be somehow reset, I am just not yet convinced that this is the case. It has been a while since I work on the PC parts, so I am going into this rabbit hole and explore more.
For what's worth, I called Dell Support, and the first-line support lady read it from the User Guide that indeed, that ONLY the 8 GPU listed are supported by this system. I asked her the question five times (yes, 5 times), to make sure I am not hearing it wrong, she repeated the answer 5 times. I thanked her and hang up.
