Alienware x51 motherboard failure: replace or get new

[jennafacompre]

Hello! About 6 years ago, I bought an Alienware x51 (yes, i know, stupid idea). About 3 years ago, there was a complete motherboard failure and but I already had another PC so I just left it in the corner of my room since. I am now going off to college and want to fix it so that I don’t have to lug my other PC back and forth (ill leave one at home). Im wondering if I should replace the motherboard or just take all of the other parts that still work and make a new PC (if that would even work).

Why are you so sure the motherboard is dead and replacing it would solve the problem?

When I power it on, the system beeps and it doesnt work at all. I matched it up with the beep codes and its a motherboard failure.
