It runs COD at 105 fov 100 fps 144hz at normal settings real good. Heard it doesn't have efficient cooling case though.

How easy would it be to sell the card out of this? I don't want to get stuck with the card if it's something hard to sell.

Runs quiet, lots of USB ports, seemed to run any game I wanted. Hadn't tried mining yet but I hear it's not LHR. I returned Aurora best buy laptop after buying this one, desktop GPUs are just way faster.
I installed all dell updates, then windows updates, then made a backup of the disk image. If you make an offsite backup you can delete like 30gb in recovery partitions on the main drive, if you delete the paging, hibernate file and system recoveries you gain another few gigs.
Had to run these steps to get a linux partion working because the 1 NVME is in raid mode (weird)

Best to just clean install windows ASAP. Everything works and license crosses over. Get Vetroo V5 cpu cooler is all you need.

Sales tax at Costco would be $150ish.
So $300-350 for the PC. Maybe worth it, maybe not.
