Product: Hp pavilion 15-p073tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi, I have a hp pavilion 15-p073tx laptop. Recently due to power spike motherboard got burned. Now I got it diagnosed and the service centre guy told me replace motherboard but the cost of replacement is 25k INR. So I want to know is it worth it to replace motherboard or should i save and go for new laptop. Please note that I am bit constrained for money.

Laptop specs:- i7, ram 8gb, HD 1TB, graphics nvidia 840m 2gb.
Thanks.

$25,000 for a motherboard replacement?!?  That is wayyyyyy too much for a simply motherboard replacement.  Can you confirm the price of that before we many any decisions?

As i thought.

 

766472-501

 

look around with this part number for a replacement motherboard.  i figured that you would have Windows 10 Home.  Some different models in this series have Windows 10 Pro or no Windows at all.

So basically you are saying that I should replace my motherboard and it's worth it right?

Yes. $388US is very fair for replacing a motherboard which includes the i7 processor. The laptop would cost at least twice that to get something comparable today.
