Anyone out there know if a MBP 17 inch late 2011 logic board (661-6177) with matching heat sink (922-9827) can be transplanted into a MBP 17 inch mid 2010 with the remaining 2010's parts?
The shape and mounting points of both logic boards look to be the same in pics i've seen. The heat sinks are different between the models and there are a few minor parts with differing numbers between the mid 2010 and the late 2011, the majority of parts are the same between models form what I can see in the service manuals. I've already replace the top case with a 2011.
