This is a complete cop out answer. I've not been able to get my AGA working with an Nvidia 1080. Won't recognize the card. The page the answer refers to says the 1080 is compatible. Yes, there's a note saying some may not work but that isn't great help from Dell as you have to buy a card then try it. The help from Dell I got was advice to buy another card (and if Dell knows which one it doesn't say on its list) or to wait for future driver updates and se if that works. As a long term lover of Alienware kit, and having several systems(and was looking to get one or two more this year) I have to say that my experience with the AGA is pushing me elsewhere. Being stuck with a $1000 lump and no spare $1000 to get another card, I'm wanting to know when the device will get the updated driver etc updates.

Hi,
Unfortunately, that video card is not validated so we can't confirm functionality.
Here you have an article that will show you all compatible cards, check if by any change you can try with a validated card:
