I mean it's great for you that you got a good deal on a graphics card (assuming Dell's implementation of the 3080 is good, like its 3090, and not absolute garbage, like its 3060). But you had to rebuild the whole thing in a different company's case with an actual cooling strategy in order to make it viable? The point of a prebuilt is that this ships to end users who don't have that knowledge or capability or the desire to do it and just... run the system.
Just look at the laptops... you scared me away from an Alienware laptop because a review found that Dell was massively underpowering the video card... making you pay for something you don't get full use out of.

I guess its limited by heat and its common practice but still scammy IMO
