    Hello everyone,

    I need to replace my Alienware 15 R3 Intel i7 7820HK + NVIDIA 1070 motherboard. A bad repasting job damaged the whole MB. So please don't ask me about DELL support ;) Everything else is working.

    Could someone please tell me the part number and where to buy a new MB? International shipping is needed!

    Thanks!

    Go to Alienware drivers section, type in your service tag and in left tab click on Parts section to get the exact MB part no.

    If dell technician has damaged the mobo, you can go for a full system replacement for free. Why buy a mobo if you can get a new pc?
