Genuine Dell OEM Replacement Board
This is a genuine Dell OEM motherboard with an on-board Intel Core i5-4200U processor running at 1.60GHz. It serves as a direct system board replacement for the Inspiron 17R 5737 and Inspiron 17 3737 notebooks. The Dell part number is W6XCW.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
The integrated dual-core CPU operates at a base frequency of 1.60GHz within a low-power envelope typical for ultrabook-class notebooks. In normal use the board relies on the laptop's existing cooling solution to manage thermals without excessive fan noise. Power consumption remains consistent with the original system design for balanced battery life.
Upgrade Context and Value
This board replaces a failed or damaged system board in the compatible 17-inch Inspiron models, restoring full functionality with the original i5-4200U processor. The jump is worth it when the existing CPU is soldered and non-upgradable, making a full board swap the only path to a working machine. It is not for buyers seeking a newer processor generation, higher core counts, discrete graphics support or a different form factor.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Dell W6XCW motherboard in an Inspiron 17R 5737, and which step is most often missed?
Remove the battery, disconnect all cables, and unseat the heatsink; the step most often missed is reapplying thermal paste on the soldered i5-4200U before refitting the cooler.
What maintenance or replacement will the W6XCW board need later?
The on-board i5-4200U cannot be swapped; plan to replace the thermal compound every few years and the CMOS battery when the clock drifts.
What limit appears first on the W6XCW under sustained load?
The soldered 1.60 GHz dual-core i5-4200U hits its thermal ceiling before the board’s power delivery does.
