AMD is preparing to officially launch the incredible 16-core Ryzen 9 3950X and Dell has selected it for an Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R10 Gaming Desktop. Understandably, the OEM also chose a high-end GPU in the form of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 2080 Ti to aid with the processing duties. The premium desktop has been destroying benchmarks apparently at the cost of heat and noise emissions.

Intel KS is better for games
Is the cooling so bad that it's throttling, or can a $1200 GPU really not even hit 144fps in 1080p on AAA games nowadays??

No it can not. But keep the hypothetical's flying so as to remain totally disconnected from reality.
Save yourself the $1000 and build it yourself. 64gigs of RAM is overkill and unneeded. It's a gaming rig not a server...

Intel only holds onto 1080p gaming, and just barely.
Intel fanboys your CPU is truly a "one trick pony".
