Whoever at BB configured this should lose their job, you can hire me, hell you could hire a monkey!
First, memory? For real? Single Channel in 2021?
Second, Cooling? For real? Low grade CPU cooling in 2021?
Third, PCIe in not x16, its by x8...This in 2021? (That's not a BB issue that's a Dell issue)
Fourth, fans...Jesus the fans...why can't we just replace them with anyone's we want? Nope, can't do that! In 2021 a "Gaming" company doesn't understand its demographic? You see all these one stars BB, there's a reason for that! This isn't 1999 and our parents aren't buying these computers, this is 2021 and gamers know what's in their PC's.
You should all be ashamed to sell this....Returning my ASAP for a refund.

Got my unit today and it was used, had dust under the second screen and a scratch/dent and a bulge on the back near the fan.
If you buy make sure to check you unit out, there should be zero dust and no bulges/scratches/dents. Know this because I went to a owners forum and asked them and all of the told me their units didn't have dust or bulges/dents.

Price point is nice!
Needs new ram, stock is slow and holds it back.
No MUX chip meaning a performance hit but with external monitor that problem goes away, since the DP port is connected directly to the GFX card.
With those two things, it preforms around a 3080 at a big time price difference.
No HDMI 2.1…
No Thunderbolt 4, USB-C port though.
Bought two, had to return one because of dead pixel and high heat and some BSOD. The other one I got is perfect so far.

"Is there any thunderbolt functionality? Docks, hubs, HDMI, etc? Pass through charging on usb-c ports?"
No TB support as this is AMD, as from HDMI it has one on it 2.0b I believe. The USB-c port has pass through and DP on it, the DP port is direct to the GPU.

Is the GPU a 3070 Max P or a 3070 Max Q?
Its the max-p variant but not full 140 watt, its 115+15 from dynamic boost.
