Hi,
In your replacement guide I see no link to purchasing a mid-2010 2.66GHz Intel Core i7 board.
I believe it was a new spec at the time.
You reference a 2009 board, but is that the same?
Thanks
/Stephen
Is this a good question?

DO NOT buy 820-2850 boards of any kind, they all wind up kernel panicing for no reason. Apple hasn't even figured this out yet. At least 2011 820-2915 boards work after replacing the GPU, 820-2850 just belong in a furnace.

What are the last four digits of your computers serial number? That will help us to properly identify your hardware and which board you have/need.
