Possible to upgrade logic board - A1707

I have a 2016 MBP, touchbar and I'm curious if it's possible to upgrade the logic board? I know that basically all the components are soldered into the board, so that's out.

But what about the logic board itself? Could I take a board from, say a 2019 or other year and install that?
Are they even close to the same dimensions/connectivity? Is there a good way to measure

This is probably going to be a solid no, but I'm just musing. Given that my laptop is now 3 OS upgrades behind, I'm wanting to do what I can to keep it running

Well… jumping to a 2018/2019 is not possible as the logic board is very different. But you could swap out the logic board with a better 2016 CPU/GPU setup and/or higher RAM or storage.

Now the bummer! In most cases most people just jump to a new system used or new as it’s less risky and transferring your stuff over is a breeze!

This is pretty much what I was thinking, thanks for the confirmation! It's one of those things that "seems" like it would logically work, right? They're all mostly the same size, so you should be able to swap in a different board....I'm guessing Apple thought of that and made everything juuuust different enough.

Le sigh

@danking - It’s not just Apple, ultra thin laptops in general don’t offer logic board swap outs. A traditional Desktop tower PC does offer that to some degree.


Sorry for the bad news, in any case if you’re set don’t forget to accept the answer. Thanks!

Just sell it and use the money you would spend on just a logic board and the hassle and risks of damaging something swapping everything over might actually cost more in the long run. Or use opencore patcher to upgrade to Ventura or Sonoma if it is that important.

Part of the reasoning for my question was that I tried out OpenCore Legacy and it worked - as far as installing Sonoma and then Sequoia on the system. But, WiFI and graphics were a bust. I'm sure performance took a nose dive too

@danking I personally will stick with Monterey, it is more friendly and supported by my unit (2015 MBP 15"). Opencore I never actually tried it, mixed reports, mostly issues with bluetooth and wifi as newer machines I think have upgraded cards for that which our older systems don't have.
