[QUOTE="Cameron_N, post: 1685817, member: 364081"] **UPDATE** Today I brought another MacBook Pro, the manager at the Apple Store kindly agreed to sell me a brand new Macbook Pro same model at the original price that I paid for my first one $4,099.00 instead of the new price of $4,999.00. Myself and the manager Ben agreed that if this Macbook has the same issue, that myself and the technicians at Apple will work together to find the root cause instead of them just replacing the Macbook like they have been doing, because this is obviously getting us no where. The manager was sympathetic as to why I got so fed up. I am extremely appreciative of what the manager has done. I have been thinking about you're theory of interference and the more I think, read, talk to people and view videos I think you may be on to something. The water heater is next to my bedroom, I spoke to my Dad and he said that sometimes when the pool pump is on it affects the TV. I believe and my Dad thinks this is highly likely that I may be getting interference down the AC line. I have replaced the power board to a modern one with a surge protector in hope for a cleaner AC delivery. Dad has done an electrical engineering course as well. If it is interference it would also explain why I can't recreate the issue even when putting the GPU through ****.
