Nothing swapping the main board out won't fix
I didn't know that was a thing...
Seen some threads on reddit of people swapping out for skr boards, found a git repo doing that for an adapter kit but does look to have things documented.
End of the day, it's just some steppers, sensors and heaters, klipper supports a bunch of different printer types (bed slinger, core xy, core xz, cartesian, polar, like seriously a lot). Hard part on some of these would more likely be connect components to the board, need to know voltages and pinout for example, but if you can figure that out you're good. Klipper is amazing and you can replicate a lot of custom stuff in macros.
Yeah, but you could also kit build a similarly capable printer if you're willing to go that far, and at that rate you may as well give Anycubic the finger in the process and not provide them with any of your money...
Oh for sure, I'm firmly on the side of building a kit or sourcing your own for something like a voron v0.2 for people unfamiliar/uncertain; not a huge investment, will learn a lot assembling it and you'll have an abs capable machine that's yours at the end of the day. I do still absolutely recommend prusa kits too or second hand older ones, super easy to modify and there's and absolute wealth of information (and mods) for them.
Board swaps and conversion kits more for people who already have something and would rather modify it than buying a whole new machine, less waste than tossing the whole printer and getting a new one. Could use as a platform for something like a switchwire, there's an Ender 3 conversion out there for example, and looks like there's an anycubic Viper one too and another
