Replace broken motherboard

[ac70]

I have to replace the motherboard to my HP ENVY 700-060ea Desktop.The motherboard is "HP MS-7826 V.1 (kaili)"

I can't find it online. Can you recomend me a place where to buy it? Is there a more recent version of the motherboard I can buy?

Is it true that when you buy an HP computer you can't find any component and if you need to replace one you are screwed?

no, your not screwed there are numerous SIMPLE ways to locate parts, and google is one of the easiest and simple methods

hp partsurfer is another simple way and yes there is a v2 kali motherboard available

Thanks DGroves for your answer, I have bought a v2 kali motherboard. Now I was thinking to replace the processor with a better one but I can't find which processors are compatible with this motherboard. Do you know where I can find a list of compatible processors? Thank you in advance
