Area-51 R2 video card update options
Have an Area-51 R2 current with dual GTX810Ti cards. Looking to upgrade but unsure what I can use. I have 1500w power supply.
Wondering if I can go to dual 1070/1080/2080Ti?? (looking to stay Nvidia). Any advice / resources?

With that PSU, you won't have a problem. The following forum posts at Alienware Arena should help.

Power supply is not an issue.
These cards are physically bigger, both in length and height so check there is space. As for cards getting thicker, motherboards cater for this by having pci slots further apart, I. E. you fit cards in slots 1 and 4, with slot 3 free.
