I've bought a second-hand ASRock B660m PG riptide for $49, and it's dead now. ASRock doesn't offer personal insurance coverage, so I have to choose whether to repair it or just let it go and buy a brand new one.

Yes, but maybe it's hard to find an expert.

Replace it then, sell the dead unit as a parts donor

Yeah it could get in right hands that have resources to do the repair or know someone who does it as a living.
