Apple Mac Logic Board Repair Cost — Australia Pricing Guide

Last Updated:

Apple Mac logic board repair pricing varies dramatically based on (1) chip generation (Intel-era vs Apple Silicon), (2) approach (component-level repair vs full board replacement), and (3) specific failure mode. Component-level work is typically 30-40% of full-board replacement cost.

This guide covers AUD pricing as of 2026 for both approaches across all Apple Mac product lines. Apple’s authorised service almost always defaults to full logic-board replacement — they don’t do component-level. Our independent advantage is offering BOTH paths, then recommending the most cost-effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

Component-level repair cost?

Capacitor/MOSFET-level repair: $380-$680. BGA reflow (Intel-era dGPU/CPU joints): $580-$880. Trace/component repair after liquid damage: $480-$1,100. All include 90-day warranty.

Full logic board replacement cost?

MacBook Air M1-M4: $1,400-$1,800 fitted. MacBook Pro 13″ M1/M2: $1,800-$2,400. MacBook Pro 14″ M1-M4: $2,200-$3,200 (M-series Pro/Max more expensive). MacBook Pro 16″ M1-M4 Pro/Max: $2,800-$3,800. iMac M1/M3/M4: $1,800-$2,400. Mac mini M1/M2/M4: $1,400-$2,200. Mac Studio M1/M2/M3/M4: $2,400-$3,800.

Intel-era logic board replacement?

Apple has discontinued logic boards for Intel-era Macs (last available around 2024). Component-level repair is now the only path. We do this work but parts pipeline is older.

Apple Silicon component-level success rate?

60-75% for capacitor / MOSFET / trace issues. Lower for SoC-level damage (that requires full board replacement).

Why is Apple's pricing so much higher than yours?

Apple Authorised parts are typically marked up 40-80% vs our independent supply chain. Apple also defaults to full-board replacement rather than component repair, doubling the parts cost.

Worth repairing vs replacing a 5-year-old MBP?

Math: a $1,400 component-level repair on a 2019 16″ MBP keeps the machine running 3-5 more years. A $4,000 replacement gets you faster Apple Silicon but a similar service-life. Repair if storage health is good and case is intact; replace if multiple components are failing.
