m15 R3, motherboard replacement
Has anyone had problems that required motherboard replacement? I bought an m15 R3 laptop in late August of 2020. It had video chip go out in April of 2021 requiring a motherboard replacement (under warranty). Now, it has a Power rail failure which will require another motherboard replacement. That’s 2 motherboard replacements and the laptop is only 2 years old. Of course, this one is now no longer under warranty. Anyone else have these kind of issues? This is the 1st computer I’ve owned that had any issue requiring a motherboard replacement and now it’s on #3.

As an architecture student after doing soo much of research and thinking this one is standard option, it always troubled me with its heating issues ..
Even I had the same problem with my laptop and now I am not sure if I have to replace the motherboard or buy another brand.
