Aurora R13, RTX 3070 Ti to RTX 3080 Ti or higher?
Its been years since I have changed parts in a PC and I was looking to swap out my RTX 3070ti to a 3080ti or 3090ti. I have the Alienware Aurora R13 12900f 32 gig ddr5 liquid cooled. I hear its not that difficult even these days to swap out the GPU since I am planning on staying in the same series. Is this the case? And if so has anyone done this that might have some insight as to what would be the best 3080ti or 90ti to get for this model? I have a 750w I believe so I think I am good on power.
Any insight or comments would be appreciated, as I said its been a minute since I have done this and I do not want to drop the coin on the wrong type or version of a card lol.
Was considering:
EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming, 12G-P5-3967-KR, 12GB GDDR6X, iCX3 Technology, ARGB LED, Metal Backplate

3080, 3090 are previous generation and expensive to purchase new. Way better to purchase a 4070Ti.
Your PSU will be fine for the 4070Ti, just need to be sure you have 2 x 8 PIN GPU cables.

Installing a graphics card is super simple and almost any graphics card will be compatible with your rig . . . just make certain of the size dimensions of the graphics card to be sure it will physically fit in your case.
