Macbook Pro A1226 Keeps Freezing

Hello and best wishes for the new year,

My macbook freezes at different intervals but most of the time while it boots up or shorthly after; once in a while it will freeze after a longer period of time.

When it freezes I have to restart it a bunch of times, when it freezes on each occasion before I can eventually get some work done for a subtential period of time.

I had the same problem about 3 months ago where eventually it was impossible to boot and I send it to an online repair service that replaced the logic board with a new used one.

All along the hard drive could be access in T mode so I think it is good.

It worked for a while but now it is starting to act up again in the same manner.

From my research it seems like it could be the GPU, graphic card or maybe some weird kernel panics.

I am attaching 2 logs from the console between 2 freezes and the Etrecheck.

Should I attempt to repair and if yes how or is this machine done?

Thank you.
