We'd recommend that you contact Best Buy directly so that they can handle exchanging your product for a desktop that has all of the included features that you were looking for.

Great Computer!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a different Alienware Aurora R7 Desktop originally but it had serious power issues plus all of the usb ports did not work. Since it was a brand new computer and the Geek Squad could not figure out the problem they suggested I return it and get another one. Unfortunately, the one I had ordered was not in stock. My only option was to get a computer that was less money but did not have all the features I wanted or to spend more money on an Aurora R7 that had more features and larger hard drive. I opted to go with the more expensive computer. I am very glad I went with this one. It has been great! Have had a few settings to change and my wi-fi will occasionally not turn back on when I restart. Just have to figure this problem out. Other than that I love this computer. It is super fast and has a SSD so boots up very fast. Have had no regrets in choosing this model! Would definitely recommend!

Has perfect software
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this computer for the Foresight sports software and it has done the perfect job for what I bought it for. I also ran VR on it for about two hours and it seemed to work good. I have no prior knowledge about computers or Nvidia processors etc.

Amazing Computer!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Computer, had it for about 4 months now and it is a perfect machine for a gamer. I was going to build my own rig but when i saw this beauty on sale for $1900 it was too good to pass up. I highly recommend this machine!

Great product, love Alienware
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used this one for 2 years. Still comparable with 20 series. The performance is good for top fps games. People always question our IQ of buying a prebuild, but my opinion is that it really reduces the work and time of waiting the parts. Moreover, I feel safe to buy prebuilt from bestbuy rather than the dell official site.

Good overall
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everything is as expected; however, the standard GTX1080TI video card should have 4 outputs but the one included in this computer only has one. This was not detailed in the description.

Q: QuestionWill I be able to add additional 1080 Ti card? How many PCIe channels are available on the system?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer It comes with one 1080ti and you can install a 2nd one. I just had one 1080ti delivered today so I can install it. Now I’ll have two graphic cards. This computer will only take two graphics cards total.

Q: QuestionHow do I get the system recovery discs? before when you bought a new computer it always ask you to create a system recovery disc to do a fresh install of windows in case of a virus or if you computer was getting slow.
Asked by GatoGidh.
- A:Answer The R7 does not include a recovery disk. However, Windows 10 does include the ability to create a Windows image or a system restore disk. The following link shows the steps: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10/how-to-create-a-system-image-in-windows-10/84fa6683-e3ac-4e93-9139-368af9267869 I hope this helps.

Q: QuestionThis was asked before, elsewhere but no solid answer was given. I noticed it has a "display port" instead of an HDMI. I'm pretty sure the GTX 1080ti has HDMI on it, but is it behind the case? It's nowhere to be seen in the photos of the back.
Asked by Cosmos.
- A:Answer My computer came with graphic card GTX 1080ti 11gb and it has 3 display ports and 1 HDMI on it.
Answered by Art1972
Q: QuestionJust a few questions, How many watts is the power supply? I see that it is air cooled, does it have any 120mm fans and how many? Are any of the USB ports the new type C and are there any 3.0 and/or 3.1 USB type C ports?
Asked by Cinn.
- A:Answer It has one fan on top and one fan in the back but it also in fact has water cooling for the processor even though it says air. When you receive the package it states that it is water cooled and I have verified that It is. Also, it has one Type C on the top and most of the USB's are 3.1. Not sure about the ps wattage, forgot to look last time I had it open.
