Alienware m18 r2 fried

Motherboard fried, out of support, how can I get another motherboard for it or do I have a several thousand dollar brick?

    You can either call Dell to see about the part you need or try something like EBay -- the usual seller (parts-people.com) doesn't show any available.

    Brace yourself, as these run between $1,000 and $2,000 depending on the CPU and GPU aboard.

    You may also want to try parts-people.com to see if they can repair whatever the fault is at lower cost than a board replacement.
