Aurora R10 (original version) vs HP Omen 30L
sorry Dell, the HP Omen 30L that has same Ryzen 5 3000 series has a much more elegant chassis design than R10 (same chassis as R9,11,12). just my opinion although i am a mostly Dell guy and used to really dislike HP, but in this case you could potenitally learn a bit from your competitor's aesthetic taste.

Aesthetic taste is in the eyes of the bewildered . . .

R16 looks a bit like Omen.

@ProfessorW00d Are you seeing what I am seeing? It's interesting if that is a retail picture. I would pass based on what I am seeing...

I have to admit that a pc's build quality is hard to assess without seeing and touching the chassis in real. The Omen has a premium build quality, not that it uses thick material, but it feels hand made almost. I would say it is like coming out of Vatican. I have not had a chance to look at a R10 in person but based on my hands one experience with a R7 skeleton which Dell reuses in AW with a different plastic shell, I am disappointed.

@Vanadiel one looks like a futuristic Tron racing bike and the other looks like my grandparents HiFi radio box.

@redxps630 This is the XPS 8930 chassis which is quite similar to the Aurora series chassis and I found it to be adequately sturdy after manhandling it for a while. Of course it is much more sturdy painted black!!

@ProfessorW00d Take a closer look at the video card. I noticed it right away.

@Vanadiel Pascal Architecture . . . years behind Turing, Ampere, and Ada Lovelace!

30L comes with GTX 1660S
The GeForce GTX 1660 Super graphics card is based on the Turing architecture.

@ProfessorW00d No, you are missing it. Look at the power connector of the video card. Looks like a 2 plug card, but only 1 power connector is being used as the other one is not connected.
So it either will not boot, or they power limited the card so it works with a single connector.

So it's missing some power.....it won't notice as it's a cursed HP anyway.
Maybe it just melted?
