    Oh, excellent! Whatever is the most powerful is what I'm interested in to help future-proof my 7730 as much as possible.

    Thank you!

    Since mine's coming with just the Intel HD pass-thru plate, I'll need everything, though I don't mind using Parts-People.com to get my heatsink, as they're not far, their pricing on that's USD $50, and I'm on the notification list for when it's back in stock, though if your source is cheaper, then we'll do it that way. I still don't have the rig yet, and as a nearly penniless former undergrad, I get it. Might have to wait until I get the BIOS modded/overclocked M2200 back out of my 7520 before I send that back in. Anyone know someone interested in that thing?

    Expectations check: RTX 5000 is something like $2300 when ordering from Dell with a new Precision 7740. No idea why they let @Ionising_Radiation have the RTX 3000 so cheap, we'll see if it holds up...

    The LTE card was a USD $211 upgrade on the build sheet when I first got my 7510, but when I bought it third party, it only ran me about USD $100. The difference is still impressive and I hope the RTX cards come through.

    Oof. If that's the case, an RTX 3000 would be good.

    Would you mind requesting a 17” RTX 4000 quote as well so we have the full range? Who knows, maybe it’ll be $50 more than the RTX 3000.

    Sure. I was just thinking that if the RTX 5000 was affordable enough, people would just directly buy that for maximum future-proofing.

    RTX 4000 and RTX 5000 are both 110W.

    Will they run at full power then on the 7730?
