Frequently Asked Questions About the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga G6 Motherboard

Your motherboard comes with a comprehensive 12-month warranty from Reboot IT covering all electronic components, connectivity ports, and integrated circuits. This warranty ensures reliable operation and includes technical support for installation guidance.

Can I upgrade the RAM or processor on this motherboard?

Is this motherboard compatible with both X1 Yoga and X1 Carbon models?

Yes, the NM-D341 board architecture is designed for both ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6 and X1 Carbon Gen 9 chassis. However, verify your specific model numbers (20XY/20Y0 for Yoga, 20XW/20XX for Carbon) before ordering to ensure proper fit and connector alignment.
