Specifications shows difference:
+
* 2 USB 2.0 and 2 USB 3.0
GPU difference as below:
+
* 2.4 GHz A1286 Early 2011 to Late 2011
** Intel HD Graphics 3000 (384 MB shared)
** AMD Radeon HD 6750M (1 GB dedicated)
* 2.7 GHz A1286 Mid 2012
** Intel HD Graphics 4000 (384 MB shared)
** NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M (1 GB dedicated)
A person already answered parts of different years cannot be swapped (thanks, originalmachead ...just curious if someone actually tried)

Still looking for a way to upgrade my old MBP (make it turn on again as it got more issues than just logic board)
