What kind of use do you expect from your laptop, motherboard failure is kinda rare on that new a machine. 1060 is to much to pay for service like that and get away from best buy . Their service department is there to service warranty work and tell everyone else that it would be cheaper to walk out on there floor and buy a new computer. Find a reputable computer repair shop in your area. A place that doesn't sell computers. but does repair. If your ruff on your laptop invest in a heavily padded laptop bag. Dont set it on pillows or blankets this plugs vents and causes overheating . Dont drink around your laptop unless its with a sippy cup that wont spill or if you have to drink 180 proof or better wont hurt the laptop if you do spill. don't drop throw slam or slap the baby or it will become mentally disabled and yes I'm still talking laptop. If you ever have had a laptop shipped to you you will see a fragile sticker on the box that goes for after shipping as well . So in a laptop should easily last 3-5 years and only get new if you need upgrades that are beyond the capability of the machine. Thats my 2 cents ....Hope it helps
