If you turn off the fans it says it can get up to 89+'C from GPU usage which is like 192.2'F and that is not close to 325'F which is good for cookies, so maybe if its a long time it could but I didn't find a recipe for how long that would take. Good luck!

Got this the last round at $300 higher price, but cash back was higher at that time and had Chase 5% offer at dell.com, so it's awash in terms of pricing now and then with cash back and offers. Promptly upgraded it to a 4TB 990 pro and moved the 2TB it comes with (OEM 980 Pro) to the secondary port. Also upgraded to 64GB RAM. Been working very well. When not running graphics, machine is quiet. Only hear the GPU fan during game sessions. It seems very well built with all cables tucked nice and neat. I used to build everything myself but nowadays this is the way to go for me. I no longer enjoy tinkering around and debugging things when, after 2 hours of putting everything together and turning every screw yourself, you hit the power button and no beep sound or BIOS screen.

I bought the same desktop last month, same spec but with 32gb ram.
It runs quiet, just updated the Nvidia driver.

Happy with the purchase. Got the additional 10% off coupon and close to $100 from Wells Fargo.

Gave my wife my 2020 Alienware x16 laptop, that this replaced.

I'm very tempted, especially now that I know it's going in and out of stock... But after signing up with multiple email addresses, I'm not having any luck getting the 10% code in my email.

4090's are all 24GB I believe.

And 64GB of RAM in this unit, too bad it's the slower stuff...

Maybe. We are already seeing from Dell a system with a 4090, 32 GB RAM, 512GB NVME for $2400.

Another "repost" masquerading as new.

How can a post that's 2 hours old and trending has comments from a week ago?

SlickDeals must be getting some big kickbacks from Dell.

Got the intel ver of this and already had a power supply change, the 4090 is INFAMOUS for having power issues on this model, bought a refurbished model that would just overheat as the default cable management is faulty. Besides that, I cant really complain that much as my unit was $2500 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The 4090 + PSU + Case is really worth $2350? Because the 7900x + Mobo + 64gb RAM was $550 for quite a while. I guess I figured GPU prices went down but maybe not as I am guessing that's the main factor in the price for this thing

No, you get a 4090 for well under $2000, and I wouldn't use that case or PSU if they were free. The other costs you may not be factoring in are the ssd and Windows license. However, you can save a few hundred dollars or buy significantly better components if you build yourself and look for deals. Even more so if you can purchase from Microcenter. You're paying for convenience and (somewhat) easier troubleshooting/warranty with this prebuilt. Check out pcpartpicker.com for builds and pricing if you're considering building yourself.

How long will this last until you have to upgrade? And this is a great deal right I
most cards last around 5 years if you care about new technology, as they like to lock new features to only be on newer cards.

as for power this card is top tier and will last at least 5 years or 10+ if you don't care about new technology features, I myself have a 2080ti that card around 5 year old I can't use some new technology but the card can run most games maxed no issues in 2k I don't have a 4k Montier.

IF you want the best 2090 is it and will run anything top tier, nothing else will match it. thu cheaper cards that do good exist, also this year is supposed to be new cards that match or beat this card, if true this price will drop, if you got cash to spare do it, if not or want save money, buy something like the 2070 super card price range, as it as good and you be just as happy unless you really need THE BEST.

The post isn't 2 hours old. It was expired and then un-expired when more product went back in stock. I guess that changed the timestamp?
