I've seen there are issues with the Early 2011 MacBook Pro 15/7 inch where the GPU fails.
I would like to know if this is true for the Late 2011 (June 2012 purchased) MacBook Pro's too ?
Thanks
 
From what I have read majority of reports are users with 6750M 1GB and 6490M

I have the 6490 and apple care runs out in sept so if it happens to me I hope it happens soon
 
Mine has been fine, but when i first brought this machine i repasted the thermal compound with MX-4, ever since the 8600GT problems on the aMBP I've sworn to do this on every machine i purchase so hopefully ill be fine, my 2.2GHz i7 quad CPU idles at 25c and the dGPU idles at 30c before it was on 50(cpu) 60(gnu)
