MBP on FedEx Truck

[alphaod]

I'd say send it back!! And wait for the new mbp without the nvidia gpu.

First thing u should do is send it back beofre your NVIDIA card messes up your laptop. lol Apple needs to fix that crap.

You guys need not cause more alarm than needed.

I think the time between knowing it's on the Fedex truck and waiting for it to actually be delivered is the worst. I almost had to stop sitting on my porch when I was waiting for it to arrive.

I agree, the NVIDIA issue for the MacBook Pro is being blown completely out of proportion. There will be one's that fail but I got mines in June and the graphics card is working 100%, not everyone has it.

Lol, of course it works fine there's no problems with that. Its just that one day it'll stop working and just die within 1-3 years and maybe a little over 3 years which is even worse due to heat cycling.

Depends totally on the amount you push your card basically. Also it wont show any signs of problems because usually that is due to overheating which the defective cards arnt really doing but just dieing completely without any warning.

Mines is pushed "highly". I do alot of gaming in bootcamp and the temperatures for the "GPU Diode" is above average. I don't believe that it will die now or in a year and I'm in "constant" contact with Executive Relations at Apple who correspond with the Engineering Team. I see it as a "minority issue".

I removed a lot of unnecessary languages and got about 400 MB back.
