MacBook Air Logic Board Replacement

Hi, I planning to upgrade my Early 2014 MacBook Air 4 GB RAM/128 GB SSD specifically for RAM. Since this is known topic we can’t upgrade RAM, Could we upgrade the entire logic board which boasts 8 GB RAM with same 1.4 GHz i5 Processor spec on to existing one.

Yes, you can replace your logic board with another which has 8 GB of RAM and then transfer your current SSD over to it.

As to which board you can stay with a 1.4 GHz i5 board or with the 1.7 GHz i7 board. This is where your needs and how much you can spend come to play.

Upgrading to 1.7 GHz i7 board does have any complications other than hole in my pocket...
