Some components (memory, disk, graphics) are easy to upgrade, the motherboard is replaceable, but is a customized version....

Yes, you can definitely do that... but if you have to buy a motherboard, get a new model, this one is fairly outdated. So unless you have some legacy issue (like i did), i would recommend you to get a newer model

Sadly no it isnt (soldered on to the main board). Tinkering with the RAM would invalidate the warranty as Acer dont regard it as a "user serviceable part"

No you need a new board, no way to download new software other than new board

Could you personally upgrade the RAM? Only if you know how to do it and can solder. I wouldn't try it.

I actually do not know. One of my old friends fix all of it I just bought the parts. Sorry

The battery is removable so I assume you could replace it. Customer service is excellent as ASUS so I would suggest that you call them to find out for certain.

Most likely. Look up whether or not the computer you are rebuilding uses ATX motherboards. Just ATX. If the computer uses that, it should be compatible

Possibility, with bios update, however, this motherboard went dead on me after only two days

You need to take it to next level and complain to their supervisor or above since this is an expensive motherboard. Why are they sending you refurbish boards? It's no wonder why they all DOA

Unless you get a new motherboard. Its unlikely that the socket will be the same.

The whole case uses thumb screws to take apart. It also has handles on the left and right sided of the case for easy carrying. Upgrading the motherboard is also easy since the tray can be taken out, just make sure you screwed the motherboard in. The top panel has holes like the front of the case you can see your parts and lights can be seen if there is some.

you can buy the boards from http://www.shopjimmy.com/ but you're guessing on what board to replace. Power supply or ???

Hello, I bought it some months ago.Just use the SATA cable and the power cable connected to your mother board and that's it.

Unless you know how to, have the time to, and have the right soldering equipment to resolder a motherboard replacement, I recommend you just buy another one. I just replaced my drowned motherboard, motors/lights and removing and soldering all those color coded wires to the correct tiny soldering pads is DRAMA.
