Hey Everyone,
I'm attempting to repair my Fiancé's Laptop for Christmas this year. It's a Vivobook 15 (Model F512D) that comes with a Ryzen 7 3700U CPU. She got it for school at the beginning of the year, and after about a month she spilled wine on it, and has fried the mobo in it. I have found the correct replacement mobo, but they're sold out until who knows when with the current tech shortage.
The problem I'm having now is, I've found a "compatible" mobo for the laptop model this is in stock, but it says it is meant for a Ryzen 3 3200 CPU. My question ultimately is, will this motherboard support my current CPU, or would buying this only be a waste of time, and I should wait for the correct mobo to come in stock? My assumptions are that it is a laptop, meaning the parts it is supposed to be replaced with are 1:1, and if I buy this motherboard, it won't have enough power to support the CPU, or something to that effect.
For some background on me, I work in IT. My day job is working on Dell products for an enterprise system, and have put together quite a few desktops on my own for myself and friends. I've been doing my research, but I feel that at this point I can't find the answers I'm looking for and have turned to forums for some more insight into this issue.
For specifics, the model I need is: 60NB0LZ0-MB1140, but the model I found in stock is: 60NB0LZ0-MB2210.
I would love for this to work so I can have it fixed for her, but I want to make sure there won't be any issues. Thanks for anyone that might be able to help me!
