[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1801463, member: 46727"] If your MacBook Pro runs okay in safe mode, that eliminates hardware as the fault. Safe Mode removes all kexts (drivers) that are not Apple needed, all startup items, and even kills the sound module. Programs and certain processes can startup from hidden places in macOS and sometimes are hard to find. And according to specs, your machine uses an Intel Iris 5100 GPU which is integrated. Those almost never fail and if it did, it would show up in safe mode also. When you say you reinstalled macOS with a brand new installation, where did the image come from? Was it one you used before or a brand new download from Apple? [/QUOTE]
