I recently bought a phat, SNES with no yellowing to replace my original yellowed SNES.  I believe the one I just bought has the small motherboard since it feels a lot lighter than my original one.  The problem is when I hook it up with a composite cable, I get a weird line down the middle of the screen, similar to the picture below.  I tried it with S-Video though and the line is not there.

My original SNES doesn't have any graphical problems but it does have the yellowed case.  I thought about switching shells, but will the large motherboard fit in the newer shell or will I have to do some mods to make it fit?  

Are there any benefits to the big or small motherboard other than weight?

 
For your green stripe problem, might I recommend getting the capacitor kit from Console5.com ? You'll have to open it up to see which version of the mother board you have. Here's a tutorial video:
