Common software-related causes include high CPU usage from background processes, corrupted system files, and software bugs. Use Activity Monitor to identify and manage high-usage applications.

Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) can often resolve fan speed issues as it controls thermal management. Follow Apple’s instructions to reset the SMC for your MacBook model.

Apple does not manufacture any of the parts used in the MacBook, except for the latest M1 / M2 processors. Apple orders the production of parts at factories in China, India, and Malaysia.

Apple does not sell its parts on the market, moreover, does not allow the manufacturer of these parts to sell to third-party repair shops. We use original Apple parts from used/refurbished and “donor” Apple logic boards. So, basically, we use the same parts as Apple uses for our Mac repairs.

If someone is 10-20% more expensive than us and puts themself as “Apple-authorized”, this is simply not true. Apple and Apple-authorized repair centers do not perform component-level repairs but outsource that work to third-party repair shops with whom they have an agreement. Usually, Apple Authorized Centers simply perform an entire motherboard replacement, resulting in an unreasonably expensive repair.

Definitely not. Being an Apple-certified repair center means that repairs are 100% officially covered by Apple’s warranty. Therefore, if your laptop is still under warranty and not damaged by liquid, you’d better contact Apple or Apple certified warranty repair centers.

Apple certification means someone has passed the test and can read the manual. This does not mean that they have the logical thinking along with years of repair experience that is needed to find the cause of the failure, but we do.

We proceed with the repair of the motherboard only if we are confident in its stability after the repair. If we see that the repair will be only a temporary solution, we advise our customers not to spend money and recycle it. In addition, we provide a 3-month warranty for all types of motherboard repairs. Usually, the instability of the motherboard after the repair will manifest itself within a week of use. If the motherboard works normally for more than a month, then it will continue to work without problems.

We are not an Apple Authorized Service Provider. We are an independent service center that deals with Apple devices and other electronics products and is in no way affiliated with Apple. Authorization from Apple will tie our hands to the point where we will be forced to charge you $800-$1400 to replace your entire motherboard because of one small defective component.

Replacing the motherboard on a MacBook is quite expensive, unlike repairs, which only cost a fraction of that amount. Therefore, we do our best to repair the motherboard and save you money. If your Macbook is damaged beyond repair, you can take it back at no cost.

For most repairs, the data does not need to be deleted, you can of course back it up, just to be on the safe side. In addition, we need access to your device to for testing purposes, so you will need to share your access code with us. We suggest that you delete all sensitive data from your MacBook before sending it in for repair.
