Bring it in to Apple, your computer qualifies for a free repair if the GPU is found defective.

Bring it in anyway, Apple may still fix it as there may not be an indication that a non-certified tech opened it. Just be really polite.

- If it's covered under the GPU programme, the fact that it has been opened and modified shouldn't affect that coverage. It's already out of warranty, so there's no warranty to void.
I had my 2011 fixed under the programme with all sorts of modifications installed with no issues.
What do I need for this to be done
- Just bring it into any Apple store or Authorized Service Provider and tell them you're having issues with the GPU. They'll run some tests, and if it is indeed due to the video issues that are covered under the programme linked to above and if it fails their test (i.e., shows errors), they'll replace the logic board with a new or a refurbished one at no cost.
