Yeah so what. Why would one need support from Dell for the cards themselves? We do this all the time with HP and their workstations. Dell would be the same. They just won't help if the 1080TI is in there. So if you need help from Dell just pull the 1080TI and place the original low spec card back in and then request help. The warranty is still intact from Dell for everything except the 1080TI cards.
