- 27" iMac (Mid 2011), 3.4GHz Intel Core i7, 12GB RAM, 2GB Video Card, 1TB HDD
The other day my iMac went out along with everything in my room due to a power outage. It was running Parallels 7 and League of Legends so to say the video card was pretty busy at the time. After the outage when I went to turn the screen back on I was greeted by the usual sound of fans and chime, but the screen remained black. I reset the SMS and PRAM all to no avail. After being reminded by phone support that I am out of warranty and many google searches later I'm still only pretty sure that the Video Card is fried. If that is the case I've found replacements for around $600. Do you think there could be any other solution to this? and how much would Apple charge for repairs?

ps. I'm definitely gonna buy a better power strip.
