[SOLVED] MAINBOARD REPLACEMENT ON LAPTOP, HELP

[Karoururu]

Hello everyone.

i have a DELL inspiron model :15-7577 P72F.
The mainboard needs out of warranty replacement
the part code is "VPTXG" but there are no available for purchase at a reasonable price that dosen't justify buying a new laptop.

I can acquire a "TM9WY" maiboard for a reasonable price, and it even has a better CPU, but is for the newer dell laptop model, the G7 7588.

From what i can tell this mainboard is compatible with my laptop, both in specs, form and layout. But i have no way to be sure.
I would require an expert opinion.

thank you.

What will work in a laptop would really need to come from the vendor support techs, unless you can find something online that someone tried that same model and it worked. If not, you need to hope it works or get the real replacement. Usually there are issues with the screen and maybe keyboard issues when changing motherboard.
