Aurora R10, other GPUs supported?
Simple question. Will a GTX 1070 or other older cards work on an Alienware Aurora R10 (w. Ryzen 3000) without the BIOS complaining, not booting, etc?

6 users validated gtx 1070 in R10. https://www.userbenchmark.com/PCBuilder?searchTerm=Aurora%20Ryzen%20Edition%20GTX1070
it is like using an old simple video card to diagnose system issue. no problem. bios does not have gpu age discrimination. Dell validated nvidia cards for R10 are for the most part RTX series but Dell also validated one GTX series card which is 1660S. 1070 should have no problem.

Hit and miss if not a validated configuration.
There's also size restrictions due to the limited space inside the case.

if it is a non-OEM Dell graphics card and you experience the dreaded black screen on power-up . . . try turning off Secure Boot.

Yes, that usually helps. but only if you can see the screen, and for that you usually need another card. Secure boot is sadly turned on by default.
