So I got an Asus Rog Strix G16 with 4060, i7 13650hx but it didn t work( i knew it has problems). Got it for a pc with rx6600 and i5 9600kf, a pc i got with 300€. I didn t know how big the problem was, took it as a gamble.

Sent it to service because it was worse than i expected, found out the cpu was dead, that s what they told me beside some other things.

The guy told me he can reball an i9 13950hx and swap the i7 to fix it. 588€ would be the cost IF there are no other surprises.

What do you think, was it a mistake? Was it worth it? And what experiences do you have with reballed cpu s? Do they last or i should expect more problems?

They told me i have a 90 days warranty and i m thinking about getting another 1 year just to make sure or maybe try to flip it in those 90 days.

I m attaching some pictures, tell me what do you think and what it looks like.
