I haven't seen a RTX 3080 or 6800 XT desktop at <$1600 range for a long time, so figure I will share this. I would love to pick up a 3080 pre-built for similar price but until that deal shows up, this is as good as it gets.
This is liquid cooled which should help with a relatively compact case. 6800XT itself is also more power efficient than 3080. IMO this case is not good for a i7 and 3080, but for 5600x and 6800XT, it should work fine as long as you don't overclock it.
Possible Upgrades: +$180 for 3080
Possible Downgrades: -$355 to downgrade power supply and get 6700XT ($1349 for 6700XT is a very strong deal).
Ram and SSD you can get on your own.
Overall 6800XT is slightly faster than 3080 in traditional games, but falls behind significantly in ray tracing and DLSS. Whether this is worth $180 is up to you.
This configuration cannot be shipped to California, Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Vermont or Washington due to power consumption regulations.

This has been the case with things like light bulbs that just save a couple of watts, so for half-kilowatt gaming pcs don't kid yourself about whether this is a red/blue state thing. It's going to be coming everywhere. Because it's not about "saving the planet" or pollution, but about not crippling the power grid and having massive texas- style blackouts all so that companies can make their price tag say $1599 instead of $1609.
It's not aimed at "the little guy". It's aimed at Dell and their competitors.

Yet we can build thousands of EV charging stations on that same grid.
It's all a game for control. Don't kid yourself that it isn't anything less. These relatively small restrictions just groom you to be used to them and then be more docile for bigger ones when they come.

And adapting the grid to support EV chargers, etc, is exactly the sort of reason that regulators don't want to be pointlessly wasting megawatts on bad PC power supplies.
Don't do it.
Edit: Just wanted to clarify that I had the AIO cooler. It was the GPU temperatures that particularly worried me. Thought the CPU temps should've been lower too though. I added a second intake and replaced the stock fan. But the AIO fan on top was still quite loud (since it was the same type of stock fan). I also had constant BIOS problems because the Aurora only accepts specific fans. There's a workaround for a lot of things and you can put forth effort to improve it. But that is just so much work to improve a hot, unimpressive unit. I'd rather get an ABS, strip the good stuff, buy the rest, and sell what's left. Call me crazy.

All the deals this holidays will be around prebuilts. Won't be able to buy one of these at MSRP any time soon.
Yes. Server Bank are so much more efficient..

With that said he only owned the pc for about 3 months, a testament to its airflow capacity. Literally fails GN's operation gpu AND cpu tests.
The case is not amazing but it is adequate. People just like to piss on it in reviews because you can actually get one today vs months of wait for other brands. There is airflow, and you can enhance that and reduce noise if it bugs you with a couple silent fans like noctuas. 100% opt for the AIO water cooled cpu, don't expect one for free like the one YouTube review guy gamer nexus maybe? His review was a joke anyways.
The gpu almost always needs some attention, new thermal pads brought my vram down from 110+ stock to 92-96
Mine has worked fine, it pulls 200-400W at the outlet depending mostly on gpu load
I wouldn't buy this particular deal, still too pricey with a 3080 optioned but glad to see them coming down.
In short, these things are proprietary pieces of crap that will end up creating a ton of e-waste with little reusability in the components. The video cards are usually Dell OEM versions with sub-par heat sinks and bare minimum power delivery specs.
If you really want to buy a pre-built, look at some of the other ones he reviewed that had more favorable assessments.

Here is the video where the R10 is reviewed. They talk about all the test methodology, etc.
