The 750 watt power supply is not available for the Dells with 11th gen, but if you do go for a 12th gen, I agree that the larger power supply is worth getting even if you don't think you need it.
And if you do buy the 11th gen on sale here and want to add aftermarket RAM, be careful what you choose as most higher speed RAM (e.g. 3200MHz) will only run at 2666 or 2333 in these machines. To have additional RAM that runs at same 2933 speed as the stock RAM, it must be rated to run at 1.2V. (Most newer DDR4 RAM is specified at 1.5V.) A couple of known compatible RAMs are Crucial CR16G4DFR32A (1x16GB) and CT2K8G4DFRA32A (2x8GB).
Also, if you want to upgrade the stock CPU cooler that comes with the 11th gen, the ARCTIC Freezer i13 X is an easy plug-and-play upgrade. (Even comes with thermal paste pre-applied.)

Zero reports/proof of V1 versions. Plus, why would there be any? The V1 versions were available for such a brief time last summer, it's not like Dell has been sitting on thousands, when we already know Nvidia was quick to plug that hole right after than first batch. A loooong time ago.
FWIW, I just bought two Dell XPS 8940s with confirmed non-LHR 3060 TIs in December (the $1299.99 deal posted on here). But I'll agree it was probably old stock, and they wanted them gone. Lucky, I know.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. Not sure if this is accurate but in the last 3 months it appears miners are able to overclock the V2s pretty drastically (roughly 73%). I've only watched a few YouTube videos where they adjust the settings and record the output.
Taxes and physical costs are local.
But this is still only about $1/day.

If anyone wants an almost new 3090 Omen pre-built, I'll gladly trade one for two of those Costco 3060TI builds (I may even throw a little cash/crypto in too). I'd lose money, but it's worth it to me to not babysit the temps so much. No more 3090s for this guy.
Or I'll trade two 1660 Super builds for one 3060TI build. Maybe a little cash there too...
