Dells have issues, but the PSU and cooling problems you guys are mentioning are literal options you can change direct from Dell before you order - I don't even think you clicked the link.

Even if you have no clue, you can use the power of the Internet to learn. Believe it or not it's not there just for porn and looking at Taylor Swift gossip
ETA: Looks like MST is a valid way to do it [dell.com].
A normal amount of power from a properly working PSU can cause the board to fail if the board has a circuit failure.
So no, a fried board is NOT always the result of a PSU problem.

ETA: PC Mag reviewed this desktop last year [pcmag.com], and in the PCMark 10 Storage test, it finished mid-pack at 2477. Not sure how that number relates to real-world performance, but the fastest machine in the comparison was 3351, slowest was 2169.

If you don't understand the difference, you're probably used to overbuying wattage on an 80Plus Bronze.
That's fine, but your electric bill would appreciate the Platinum.
An 80Plus Platinum is more efficient at power conversion, thus less overhead wattage (the peak wattage stated on the package) is required to meet the needs of the system.
That correlation in efficiency translates regardless of how much power is being used.
The takeaway here is that less overhead wattage is required to meet the needs of the system. Thus, there's less wasted power overall.
If you think the difference is negligible, you're probably not paying your own electric bill.
- There is no evidence that this is an 80 PLUS Platinum PSU. 99.9% it isn't. And we can stop the discussion here.
- In the very remote chance that it is, for any home PC user in the US who has the means and the time to sit at a $1000 PC with a mid-range graphics card and play computer games, the real difference in the electric bill specifically due to using a more or less efficient PSU will be inconsequential.
- And to realize the benefit of a potential difference, you do pay for it upfront (to get the better rated PSU). Once you amortize that over a potentially short life of your CPU, it's hardly worth the effort.
If you really "paid your own electric bill", you would know. it's a First World problem that doesn't really exist.Dell doesnt support cpu upgrades even if intel allows it. I couldnt install 13 gen when it came out.
Motherboard is non standard size.
So buy it if you do not plan on upgrades.

So you're looking at buying a new power supply, a new case, and whatever harness is required to get an off the shelf power supply to work with this motherboard.
That leaves less than $150 to offset the cost of the 4080, unless you really skimp out on the case and PSU.
I really think you'd be better off just going for a deal that already includes a 4080 or assembling something piecemeal.
