    Hi. Sorry about the confusion with the motherboard part number. It is quite common for a part to have different parts numbers. It could be because of the batch in which it was received at Dell and the warehouse where it was stored and things like that. Please ensure that the part description matches with what you need and you should be all set. Please do let me know if you have any further queries in this regard.

    Thanks.
