Monster Abra A5 South Chipset Failure And High Repair Cost Issue

I bought a Monster Abra A5 laptop about four years ago. I have rarely used it during this time; I even removed the protective films only a few months ago. Since the day I purchased it, my usage time has been very low. But a few days ago, when I tried to turn on the computer one morning, it would not start. So I sent it to Monster service. They said there was a problem with the south chipset and that I had to pay ₺6,500, and even if it could not be fixed, they might replace the motherboard. As someone who has used computers and laptops of different brands before, I was very surprised to have this issue with the cleanest and least-used device—my Monster laptop. When I researched it, I saw many people with the same problem, and even technicians advertising services like “Monster south chipset repair.” So this can be called a chronic issue in Monster computers. I am a victim and regret using this brand. It is a brand I would never recommend to those around me.
