Replacement motherboard for Predator 15 G9-591 (motherboard/ssd failure)

Hello Acer Community,

Around early summer of 2016, I bought an Acer Predator 15 with an i7-6700hq, 16gb RAM, 128gb ssd/1tb hdd storage, and a gtx 970m from BestBuy. A couple weeks ago the computer suddenly would not turn on which really confused me. I took the laptop in to BestBuy for them to diagnose, and it turns out there was a motherboard and ssd failure. They were unable to fix it as they weren't able to locate a replacement motherboard for the laptop. My 1 year warranty for this device with Acer expired long ago, so I can't send it on for repair with them. I was wondering where I can get a motherboard for my model, as that laptop is a giant brick lying around at the moment. If I can't buy the actual motherboard itself, what are my other options? Cheers

You can't find a new motherboard for this laptop, as it is not manufactured anymore. You can look for it at online stores. I am not sure if these days a motherboard failure is considered fix-able, and it will also depend on where it failed and what failed.
