GPU switch causing graphics issues on my new Retina MacBook Pro 15 (Mid 2015)

Mine says A02F

here's another video of the jumping or bouncing text. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYrxMwCLG8Y right at the :04 mark. very subtle but it's there, and annoying.

It's the same!!!!!!!! Please let me know if they told you anything!

Okay, just got home from the Genius bar. Long story short: they're going to replace it!

Unfortunately, I have a CTO or a configure-to-order Mac and it's going to be a while. If it was a stock version, they were going to replace it right then and there, and I would've walked out of the store with a brand new machine.

They gave me a couple options since it was a custom order…..I can either buy the same one again, and then when it arrives I can take in the one that's messing up and get a refund for it. Or I can do the opposite of that: take it back to them, refund it, they’ll give me a gift card with the amount that I paid for the Macbook and then I buy it again, and wait for it to get built and shipped to me. And I think that's what I'm going to do. I would've done it today had I not had something going on all day tomorrow that I need the MacBook for. So I will probably do this as soon as I'm done with my even tomorrow.

So there you have it. I will say this, if it hadn’t been for those videos and pictures I took today, I don’t think this would’ve happened…because I cannot replicate it. It is completely random and intermittent.

I wish we could've just ordered another one in the store with the same specs, and then when it got in, I could've taken this one back to them and just do a simple swap...but whatever, at least they admitted it was a problem and are willing to replace it. I was a little worried they were going to say it’s working fine on all the tests (which it was, he tested everything and nothing showed that anything was wrong), unless you can make it do it, we can't help you. And I would've been SOL.

So good luck to everyone else. And here's to hoping the new machine doesn't have the same issue!

I'm really happy for you!i'm going to the centre later this morning with your video.

they didn't told you the problem?

i Hope I can find the solution, because they are telling me: if I can't see it I can't do anything, and from the test your Mac is ok....

Thanks for sharing!

Funy coincidence thou, mine was also a custom order. In my case I asked for a QWERTY keyboard since where I am living in Europe they use AZERTY.

I was wandering if other people with similar issues here also ordered custom ones.

i just got my mac, they says it is ok...

this are a video and a photo that i just take using it....

i'm really mad.....

All the genius could do was guess what he thought the problem was. And he said he thinks it's the video card.

He was on the fence with getting it repaired, versus replacing the whole thing. So he was telling me since I got the upgraded one, what they do is take that upgraded video card and a raw logic board and they solder it on. He said they can't just replace the video card, it's a bigger deal. Not necessarily any harder repair, they just cannot replace just that video card. So they were going to send it in to the repair facility to replace the logic board, which would also replace the video card and hard drive since it's all soldered on together.

But when I said, but if it wasn't a CTO I'd be walking out of here with a new machine? Why can't we do something similar for my case? He went and talked with the manager and came back with the returning it option.

That looks familiar, did you show them that video?

they don't care because i used to app not from apple.....it's crazy.....

When did you buy it? Can't you just return it? This is ****** up, man. ;(

you said earlier in this thread that it's only 2 weeks old and you've only used it for 3 days?
