If you're not experienced with changing a motherboard, it's best to let someone who knows what they're doing do it. But if you don't put the same motherboard in that was in it originally, you'll probably need to put in a new processor, CPU cooler, and memory. You also need to be sure the old power supply can power the motherboard and CPU you select. That's extra cost you may incur. An hour to replace a motherboard is more than sufficient, so don't let anyone charge you $300 for labor. However, by the time you pay for a new motherboard, cpu, cooling fan, memory and power supply, you're going to spend about as much as a brand new PC. Just something to consider.
