Thanks - I have purchased this device from UAE & can you suggest me dell authorized service center as i need only OEM center for repairing. Also if we book motherboard how long days it needs 

Yes as you said need to add service warranty for 15years . Bcos not possible to change a motherboard yearly once. 

Oly myself facing issues with this model ? What could case this kind of issues in a new  pc like this. 

Here even if i need i cant make direct purchase from dell or dell wont exchange this PC with new one 

I have worried like ordering a motherboard with older 10th generation & i think it would be stocked one . Why cant we upgrade with 12gen motherboard for model 9500 so that it would be newer hope there wont be issues like this ..

Depending on the CPU and GPU aboard, budget between $600 and over $1,000 for the board.  Some repair locales will offer a year's warranty on the repair;  Dell is 90 days on all repairs.  You will need to budget a couple of hundred dollars for labor, shipping, etc.

Why dell not ready to directly deal or accept orders for all purchase we need to write for dealer & they need several days to reply. What would be the solutions for this

No, you can't use a board from a newer system (that is, no 12th generation upgrade).  As above you can either schedule a repair through Dell or the repair shop of your choice.

If you're in the US, one reputable supplier of parts and service is parts-people.com.

If you're outside the US, and in a country where Dell does not have an official corporate presence, that would explain why Dell is referring you to a dealer for repair.  There are many part of the world, from eastern Europe to the middle East, Africa, etc. where Dell does not have a corporate presence -- all support and repair is through independent dealers.

 

However, if this is a business critical system, you're probably better off buying a new system, with a 3-year minimum onsite warranty, and  US-based support.  Even if you put over $1,000 into repairing this system, it will still be out of support other than for the mainboard.

Contact the dealer from which you purchased the system.

No, Dell is not going to exchange or repair an out of warranty system.

And the 12th generation CPU is in a different model (the XPS 9520), which is two steps newer than your system - you cannot drop in a mainboard from a newer system to an older one any more than you can take the engine control module from a 2022 Camry and fit it into a 2020 model.  Wiring changes, position of connectors change -- and so do the internal electronics.
