[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1796699, member: 396914"] OH, and the reason that the system fails with Photoshop, Windows, etc, is that they all drive the external GPU and don't work with the internal one. So getting the fix is required for those type apps. (Yes, I have a 2011 17" MBP that failed and was repaired by Apple, but I'm tracking the surface mount fixes because eventually the problem will return on the replaced mobo.) [/QUOTE]
