You can’t replace the discreet APU A8 chip. But you could replace the logic board it’s mounted on. Often an overheating board is liquid damage where corrosion is creating a pathway for current to flow. Changing to a different radio based board can create new problems as the antennas within the case shell may not offer the needed attenuation to work properly.
