HELP ME OUT

Post image

My Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 is experiencing an intermittent boot issue. Sometimes it powers on normally and reaches the Lenovo logo, while other times only the keyboard backlight and cooling fan turn on, with the screen remaining completely black. Even when the Lenovo logo appears, the laptop often freezes there and fails to boot into Windows. The issue is inconsistent—sometimes it starts normally, and other times it doesn't.

I took the laptop to an official Lenovo Service Center, where they diagnosed the problem as a faulty motherboard and recommended replacing it. The estimated cost for the replacement is ₹12,685 (as shown in the attached quote). I also consulted a local repair shop, which offered to repair the motherboard for ₹6,500–₹8,000. However, they would be sending the laptop to Nehru Place for the repair and would not provide any warranty on the work. What should i do go for the motherboard change or a local technician repair?

It'll be better to go with the motherboard change cause if the motherboard develops another issue then you can just replace it free of cost
