About to retire the Alienware (Dell) Aurora R11 FrankenMonster

Build - Finished!

Bought back in the day as a way to get hold of an RTX 3080 during Covid

  • When upgraded to RTX 4080, rehoused to ThermalTake Core P1
  • then original AIO pump failed so substituted in new AIO cooler
  • ram upgrades / extra Sata SSDs happened along the way as well

Mostly used for PC VR (Skyrim modded) to Quest 2 then eventually wireless to Quest3 via dedicated 6GHz router as well as some Stable Diffusion image gen when that first became a thing. Has been 'good enough' for those tasks but now suffering random resets

Am repurposing case for new 5600x based secondary PC for PC VR to Q3 again
