Lots of threads posted on this exact topic, so search for them. Here's one to get you started.
If you change the motherboard, you'll have to be sure it fits into the 3650 case and that it has the same front panel wiring connections as the original, or be able to modify...
And a new motherboard requires a new Microsoft license for Windows because the copy you have is tied to your 3650 motherboard.
