NO LIQUID COOLING - Desktops

The description says it comes with liquid cooled CPU and GPU, but the temperatures do not reflect the liquid cooling setup. I left all my graphics settings (in game) on minimum. I think at this moment. I'll just run my GPU into the ground and by the time it dies the 3080 will be available :) Example games: 1) CoD: WARZONE has average GPU temperatures. 75*p. A liquid-cooled NVIDIA 2080 Super must have a resolution of 100% (1440p at 144 FPS) at temp. under 70*C. My brother's discounted ACER gaming laptop has better temperatures than the R11. I'm working at 75% resolution, everything is set to low/off. 2) Division 2 at 74-80C (GPU) and this at 1440p at 75% with everything set to low or off for max FPS (144). I'm expecting 65-70C - most of my raid teams keep their old rigs under 65C.3) AC Odessey: Forget it. At least 80Β°C when everything is on/off. Alienware Control Center (AWCC - Embedded HUD and Controller) only allows you to adjust fan speed and overclocking limits. However, the fan control no longer reacts 100%. There are no controls that would affect any of the "supposedly" installed "liquid-cooled components". It's also a black body, not a white one. RGB is only on the inner ring, the entire front facade is not illuminated as in the previous images/iterations. Except they sell a misleading product for 1 month and then after the fact change the listing here to Revain. You know. dubious business practices <3
