I'm not a youtuber, simply created this video for your benefit to maximize the performance of the unit. Here is a link:

Enjoy.
I've done it twice now. Both times they delayed my shipment every month. My first order took 5 months of delays before they finally cancelled and gave me a crappy 10% coupon that expires in June. Everyone on reddit knows not to bother posting these dell builds because dell doesn't ship. They simply take your payment information, add you to their mailer list, sell your information to other companies, cancel your order and enjoy the profits of their farmed mailer list of people who want the latest technology.
Dell is trash tier right now, hell I'd even trust Newegg over Dell when it comes to 3080 products, and that's embarrassing to say.
https://www.ign.com/articles/dell...-hot-price <- IGN did an article on this already. It was full of $1500 3080 builds and links.
Trust me, these guys aren't shipping. Feel free to reply here with a picture of it actually arriving if you think you can prove me wrong.

I also setup NiceHash to test mining and got a stable 94MHz for a few hours but the VRAM temps did get hot as all 3080s do.

The top fan on the liquid cooler is a bit harder to do since you have to remove the radiator too.
I'm not sure if the motherboard in these will though.

Looking around online I was learning that these had heat issues with vram, so I found people were doing this mod to get the most of the gpu. I thought it was a joke, until I actually did it. I monitored temps and it dropped from 110 degrees + to around 92 - 96 under full load. I highly recommend 12.8 W/mk pads. Right now on Amazon they are expensive, but in like a few weeks I have a bunch I ordered, I might just throw out the rest on Amazon cause the ones right now are a huge ripoff. You pay a steep price for little from Amazon and they are totally like not that price.
Also I believe the size they use for the full front memory is 1.5mm as well as the back. On Amazon that thermal Odyssey one like mentioned earlier is over priced. PM Me later, maybe I'll send it for what I paid pretty much.
