Introduction
In this guide, we will be reaching and removing the motherboard from its housing in the Astro A40 Gen2. The motherboard is the only component inside the mixamp.
WARNING: Use caution when placing screws to the side as they are very small and easy to lose. Place them in groups apart from each other to avoid confusion.

Where would I find a motherboard? And would it save money fixing the mixamp?
