How can I find Dell Inspiron n5010 motherboard replacement?

Question

Hello my Dell Inspiron's GPU is failing, resulting in digital vertical stripes on screen and freezing. This is the second time it happens. I resolved it for a few months with a simple baking. However. I wouldn't like to repeat this many times and I am looking to buy a new motherboard. However I don't find anything on the internet about 0YXXJJ. I would like to get the same one. If not, please advice which one should I buy? I have Dell Inspiron n5010 currently running Intel Core i5 480M @ 2.67GHz, Arrandale 32nm Technology Current Motherboard spec: Manufacturer Dell Inc.Model 0YXXJJ (CPU 1)Version A10Chipset Vendor IntelChipset Model Havendale/Clarkdale Host BridgeChipset Revision 18Southbridge Vendor IntelSouthbridge Model HM57Southbridge Revision 06 BIOS Brand Dell Inc.

YXXJJ is the plastic chassis, not the board. In all honesty, you'd likely be better off replacing the system than repairing this one - it's too old.

If you want to replace the board, this one should be a drop-in for yours

Thanks ejn63! I can't buy such a cool machine for so cheap. I can't afford to buy anything new at the moment. The one you posted is refurbished. What is the chance I get this GPU glitch again? I understood this is a common problem with Dell Motherboards. Also, please advice whether I would be able to attach my CPU to the one you suggested. Thanks!
