With current prices, you can build a comparable machine for about $2600 (plus money for Windows 11, a keyboard, and mouse). Dell's offering saves you about $300 over this:
Intel Core i7-13700 2.1 GHz 16-Core Processor
ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 72.8 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
ASRock B760M-H/M.2 Micro ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
Crucial CT2K8G48C40U5 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR5-4800 CL40 Memory
TEAMGROUP MP33 512 GB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
MSI GAMING TRIO GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB Video Card
Thermaltake Versa H18 MicroATX Mini Tower Case
Deepcool PX1000G 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
Total for that build with current prices is $2636.75.

If it isn't, then everyone who reviewed the R13 and R15 Alienware desktops (twice the interior space and fans) and said they thermally throttle are either lying or these XPS reviews didn't do enough to try to run the 4090 and CPU at max.
Or instead, someone can enlighten me how all that hot air is supposed to keep the insides cool?

Links to 4090 cards deals...
Motherboards are the first to go, and dell's are absolutely bottom barrel for Power delivery VRM designs. Once it blows, you have to get another one that fits, and that one is just as bad quality if not worse than the first (if buying used).
It's 1000x better some RGB gamer build.
$2295 - 3x120 = $1935.
Decent deal, but no need for such power and still ~2k
I can't imagine putting a 4090 in a pc with 512SSD and 16GB of RAM, it seem lazy and dumb; there are some upgrade options but you'll want to add a few hundred to your budget. I've bought prebuilts but prefer to build. I'd be concerned that if there is a mobo or psu issue you're stuck with a few components. I'd verify upgradeability before buying this because I know you'll want more storage and am sure you'll want to at least double the RAM
