Replace 4GB ram i5 mid-2012 logic board with 8GB i7 mid-2012 board?
Anyone know for sure if it's possible to replace the logic board in a mid-2012 i5 4GB ram 11" Macbook Air with the logic board from a mid-2012 i7 8GB logic board? Do the connectors match up? Would the power management unit recognize the new board? Thank you!!

Do you have those boards? Can you pull the board numbers?
The numbers are 820-xxxx-y (x are numbers, y letter a or b).
Some people may be able to tell straight up. I'd need this info myself to be able to answer.

Holy clubbed baby seal, you guys are fast! Unfortunately I only have the receiving machine currently, and was going to order the upgrade board once consensus is reached on the matter.. I definitely won't buy a donor board without verifying what its etched number is. Do the numbers+letters need to be the exact same or are one or more aspects expected to differ? Thanks a ton!!!

Actually never mind my comment. What @reecee said is absolutely correct. I just didn't notice that you already mentioned both would be the same year (mid 2012). So to make sure you are getting the same model, try to get the same board number (that would be 820-3208 according to @oldturkey03 ).
