A genuine replacement system board for the Dell Latitude 3490 (14") and 3590 (15.6"), with a soldered 8th-Gen Intel Core i5-8250U and Intel UHD 620 graphics.

8th-Gen i5-8250U on board: Soldered Intel Core i5-8250U — quad-core, up to 3.4GHz — with Intel UHD 620 graphics.
-
Tested and working: Each board is functionally tested and powers on/POSTs before dispatch, so you're not gambling on an untested pull.
-
Upgradeable memory: Two DDR4 SODIMM slots — fit your own RAM (RAM not included), unlike soldered-memory ultrabooks.
-
Flexible storage: Supports both an M.2 2280 SSD and a 2.5" SATA drive (drives not included).

12-month warranty: Covered by Reboot IT's 12-month warranty — rare reassurance on a refurbished system board.
About This Board
This is a bare system board harvested from a working Dell Latitude 3490 / 3590. It's the ideal repair part when a unit has a failed motherboard — liquid damage elsewhere, a board that no longer powers on, or a good chassis and screen you want to keep in service — rather than scrapping the whole machine.
The i5-8250U processor is permanently soldered to the board, but memory and storage remain modular: fit your own DDR4 SODIMMs, an M.2 or 2.5" SATA drive, and an M.2 Wi-Fi card to complete the build.
Installation is a technician-level job — transferring the board into the chassis, reconnecting the display, battery, antennas, speakers and I/O, and reapplying thermal paste. We recommend fitting by an experienced repairer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which models does this board fit?
The Latitude 3490 (14") and Latitude 3590 (15.6") with integrated graphics — they share this board. It does not fit models with the AMD Radeon 530 discrete GPU (those need part number F093X).
Is RAM included?
No. The board has two DDR4 SODIMM slots but ships without memory — fit your own DDR4 SODIMMs.
Can I upgrade the CPU?
No — the i5-8250U is permanently soldered to the board. The memory, storage and Wi-Fi card are the user-replaceable parts.
Does it run Windows 11?
This platform predates Microsoft's official Windows 11 support list, so it ships as a Windows 10 machine. It also runs Linux well.
Should I have it professionally installed?
Yes. Fitting a laptop system board is a technician-level task involving full disassembly, display and antenna reconnection, and thermal paste — we recommend an experienced repairer.
What warranty and shipping apply?
The board carries a 12-month Reboot IT warranty and ships free Australia-wide with tracking.
