Logicboard from later year?
Hello. I have a macbook pro that died a while back and I want to see if swapping out the logic board will fix it. No real experience besides piecing together desktop PCs.
My macbook pro has 820-2565-A.
Could the 2012 version of A1286 be inserted? Replace it with 820-3330-b
I bought in 2011 before thunderbolt was released. Wondering if I can put in a newer version to give it thunderbolt access. Not too important since it is a decade old. But figured if I go through with the effort...
Is this possible? Thanks ahead of time.

While it doesn't matter your 2011 system mDP is in fact a Thunderbolt port. If you bought in the first weeks of its release there was a firmware upgrade that was required to enable it. Depending on the OS-X/MacOS release you've upgraded to over the years you likely had it upgraded a few times (I think its about 6 or 8 releases to the last one)
