[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1841907, member: 110816"] Two possibilities, either the GPU is failing or the cable between the logicboard and LCD is fraying/breaking. The latter is a very likely possibility with laptops since you are constantly opening and closing the cover. Since you are out of warranty period, you can look up the teardown videos on iFixIt or other sites and take the MBP apart to see how the cables look. If that checks out, then it's more likely a GPU failure and you're looking at a logicboard replacement (or more likely a new MBP). This is not a software issue and no amount of resetting PRAM/SMC or re-installing macOS is going to help. [/QUOTE]
