Aurora R10, 5800x3d compatibility?
I recently came across some posts online, I think it was on reddit, that said something about the 5800x3d being compatible now with the Alienware Aurora R10's that came with the 5000 series chips because of a bios update. Is this true? can anyone shed some light on this?

Not supported according to the official list.

@Vanadiel Yeah, I have seen an official list once before which also didn't contain the 5800x3d, which is why I'm a bit skeptical about what I read.

@boss429 Would be expensive to "test" as they typically do not accept return of used CPU's.

@Vanadiel Thats why I posted on here. I am hoping someone might eventually see this and have some more definitive info on the situation. At this point the 5800xd3 is too expensive ($300+ on amazon) to buy only to have it fail to work.

I tested a 5800x3d in my r10 second gen and can confirm that it worked just fine. I set it to pbo1 in the bios settings and it boosted to 4.5ghz ish. pbo2 doesnt seem to work and keeps it at base speeds.

@PackLeader Sorry for late reply. So how were temps and gaming with it? Think its worth replacing a 5600x for it? Any more input or info about your experience would be great. Can't find much online about it. Thanks for any info.

@boss429 just noticed the 5800x3d has been discontinued. I wonder if the 5700x3d would also work?
