simply put I have one of these old edu model imacs I want to upgrade to refurbish it, since if I’m going in I might as well go all in. will the 21.5” motherboard fit? I’m aware the io won’t exactly line up but I’m not too afraid of that much.
Questa è una buona domanda?

You are limited to one of these iMac9,1 logic boards.
Apple transitioned to a larger display which uses an LED backlight in the Late 2009 systems iMac10,1 which is why you can’t go higher.
Apple has moved on to more powerful processors i series over the Core 2 Duo and the OS and apps have also moved forward as well, so unless you have no need to upgrade your OS or apps this might be a dead end endeavor!

I'm not too worried on the os bit since I was planning on getting a newer ati/radeon mxm graphics card anyways so I can load seirra. and yeah Ideally if I could get the last variation of the duo logic boards or even the first gen core I series into this aio I'd of figured somethings would need to be replaced but I see what you mean now that I take a closer look at the way the displays are driven. with the late 2009 models using a separate board and the mid 2009 is all on the logic board.
