iMac logic board part number

I have a 2GHz, Core 2 Duo, Intel, iMac 17" and I think the graphics card is failing.

I'm getting horizontal lines as well as windows freezing in places. I've looked around and I know I can't replace jsut the graphics card, I'm trying to locate a part number for my specific logic board but am having trouble. I can only seem to find boards for sale where people state the processor speed as the main description.

I have just fixed my vertical line issue by replacing my screen LM171w02 (TL) (B2) and don't wan't to add a new logic board that won't be compatible with my new screen!!!!

Please help me locate the part number

I've done this on these older machines. The main problem has been finding logic boards that don't have the faulty capacitor problems. I've also found that I can buy the whole machine just as cheap as buying just the logic board. By buying the whole machine I can be insured that it works and I have the seller examine the caps before buying.
