A new MOBO for the G750JS seems to come in at around $495, from what I can see online. How much would you charge to fit a motherboard?
I think this laptop could end up burning an even deeper hole in my pocket, if it's only going to last another 3 years 10 months with the MOBO replacement - for me personally it's not worth it. The Dell Latitude D630 that I'm typing on (almost 12 years old), will have to be my new daily driver now, until it breaks down - it's a fine little machine for my daily admin needs and it only cost me $90 secondhand a few years back. I wish gaming laptops were as robust and reasonably priced ..!
