500W PSU seems low for this build, no?

Absolutely too low. The NVIDIA user guide says a minimum of 650W for this card.

Yeah, paired with an i9, I'd go 750w min on a build like this. Dunno how Dell calculated this...

Can this be changed out after purchase or no? Sorry I'm not tech savvy.

It can, but I'd also say that I've seen 3070 builds for lots cheaper than this one. The case on this probably wouldn't be sufficient in lots of other areas like cooling and space.

Not worth it. For around $100 more you can build a PC with each part either equal or better. You'll need to replace the PSU and case in this anyway.

Anyone know what/which PSU would fit as a replacement to 750W or above?

Would a 3080 fit in this also?

I think Dell changed their PSU to a proprietary model so you can't use aftermarket PSU. You'll have to buy a Dell PSU from eBay or upgrade via Dell site. However I think you can also cut some parts up fit an aftermarket PSU but I'm not certain

What would you consider a good deal for a i9 or i7 3070 build w/32GB ram?
