Issues
- The 2011 15" Macbook Pros have two Graphics Processors (GPU's), and have the capability of switching between these two GPU's to offer either power savings (Integrated GPU), or faster graphics (Discrete GPU). This model of Macbook Pro has a well documented manufacturing flaw with the Discrete GPU in that they inevitably fail to function properly, and cause display irregularities. This particular Macbook Pro has been set so that it uses its integrated GPU by default in order to avoid this issue. In testing, we have verified that it functions very well.
