This is an important question. It comes down to the mainboard of course.

Judging from the schematics and hardware in the wild there's not too
much variation with ThinkPads; the *only* significant variation in the
(admittedly very) old 60 generation is whether a mainboard has discrete
graphics or not, and even then that only matters for using the correct
option ROM.

There might be a bit more variation with newer generations because
they are more complex, but not too much.
