Probably from the second half of 12 began to receive customers to send repair MacBook Pro 15-inch display Kafa machine. At first there is no special attention to the use of individual customers of the environment, and the use of different frequencies caused by the video card burned flower screen problem. Over time, nearly two years more and more friends to repair these machines are basically graphics problems caused by the flower screen. Such a large amount of maintenance can be concluded that this Mac computer graphics card design problems. Apple has not officially released the news yet, but through communication with genius they are also aware of the seriousness of the problem. In Apple's official forum, February 1 last year, a post has been on the top 338 pages, 5069 floors, access volume of nearly 540,000, the respondents almost all over China, the United States, Britain, the Netherlands, Japan and other parts of the world, are all reflected in the "MacBook Pro Huati event." But, sadly, Apple has yet to respond.
The netizen that appears this kind of question reflects, they are basically watching high-definition movies, external monitors, televisions, projectors, editing large photos and other graphics-intensive tasks, MacBook Pro Computer will appear white screen, Huati, linear stripes, panic, infinite restart, and so on, again on the Apple logo visible blue stripes, A few stripes, horizontal stripes and the like, and then the white screen no longer guide, fan crazy turn and so on a series of abnormal performance.
Appear above the question Netizen very sorry to inform you to recruit. At present, Apple's official solution is to replace the motherboard, if your machine is still under warranty, as soon as possible as soon as possible to send repair! no longer warranty of the machine officially given to replace the motherboard quote 5k+ ... Can buy a computer. It's too much of a pit dad. Apple does not provide chip-level repair, direct change board, customer purchase is their consistent solution. In fact, there is no need to replace the entire motherboard, directly replace the video card display kernel chip can solve this problem.
Some suggestions for netizens who have not yet had this problem:
1. Regularly clean up the Mac. Here refers to the internal double fan, heat pipe, and so on, the heat pipe is easily blocked, heat distribution does not go out, the graphics card temperature continues to be too high, is the most direct reason for the graphics card is broken.
2. Try to play a large online game with the Mac as little as possible. At present, network game effects on the graphics card more and more high, the Macbook pro designed to conceal the heat dissipation hole can not meet the heat of your long time game needs.
3. Use as little or no Windows system as possible. Windows is much more hot than the Mac.
