Aurora R10, RTX 3080 Founders Editon compatible?

Hey guys,

I want to buy the Alienware Aurora R10. I live in Egypt so I use myus to get this pc shipped to Egypt.

I ask can the RTX 3080 Founders Editon fit and work in Alienware Aurora R10?

It needs to comply with the following specifications, and you will also need to ensure you have a proper power supply:

 

Dell OEM MSI GeForce RTX 3080

Part number = 4Y12V
Platforms = Aurora R12/R11/R10
Card dimensions = Length: 267mm, Height: 114mm, Width: 50mm
Maximum Power Consumption = 320W
Power connectors = Two PCIe 8 pin
Ports = Three DisplayPort 1.4a, one HDMI 2.1
Memory = Type: GDDR6X, Size: 10GB, Interface width: 320 bits
Graphics bus = PCIe speed 4.0, PCIe width x16
GPU = Nvidia CUDA cores: 8704, Base clock: 1.44 GHz, Boost clock: 1.71 GHz

 

Alienware OEM RTX 3000 specifications

The RTX 3080 Founders edition is 285 mm long. Since it exceeds the 267 mm, it will not fit an R10. Dell/Alienware produces its own versions of the Nvidia RTX series cards to fit their equipment.

Yes, so that will not fit.

You probably need to get a thinner front fan from Noctua (15mm ?) or reposition the front fan directly above (in the space reserved for hard-drives?) where it is currently to get it to fit.
