^^^ this. But you will void the warranty if Dell finds out. For example, you make a support call because something isn't working right. You've changed the GPU. Your problem has nothing to do with the GPU, but they ask you something about... say drivers. Wrong drivers installed, and Dell ends the support call.
The reason you can't change the Mobo, The Dell OS disk they sent you will not install on a Mobo other than a Dell.

Yes OEM manufacturers use OEM Windows and any upgrade you do will definitely void your warranty.
