Is this a common issue with mid-2014 15" MBPs w/ integrated graphics? It came on suddenly tonight and was a little surprising. I do still have a valid AppleCare protection plan, luckily.

eames posted:Are those many individual stuck pixels? I had that appear slowly over the years on my 2013 15" rMBP. It was a green tint all over the screen, which developed into the shape of two burnt-in green windows after a reboot. After a few more reboots and an hour of waiting the screens went back to normal Best guess after googling is that I introduced static electricity with a microfiber cloth.

Biodome posted:My problem with Apple maps is that the search was awful. You could search for something and it would give you a result of something with a similar name in a different state or country even. It was good if you knew the address already, though. This still happens. I've had it come up with a location in Africa instead of searching nearby in the US. More frequently, it'll pull up other states for locations within 20 miles of me.

What's the word on the difference between 4gb and 8gb of VRAM for the 5500M on the 16" MBP? If I get this thing I would like to do some travel gaming on it but I'm unsure how likely it is I would actually hit that cap before bottlenecking somewhere else.

Bob Morales posted:They don't have boot camp drivers yet Based on the description, that guy compares the 5300 with 4gb to the 5500 with 8gb. I'm talking about comparing the 5500 with 4gb to the 5500 with 8gb. I don't normally game in Bootcamp. Half of my Steam library supports MacOS.

enojy posted:I wouldn't think 8GB vs 4GB would have any appreciable effect strictly within the realm of gaming performance. The GPU will surely run out of juice before the VRAM does. Electric Bugaloo posted:It matters. There’s a few Youtube demos of the three available GPUs and I think BareFeats went into them. This is killing me...I'm looking at the base model and thinking "This is pretty good, but for only $100 more I can get this... and for only $100 more I can get that..." and one thing leads to another leads to a $6,000 charge.

I pulled the trigger on the 16" MBP w/ 5500 Pro and while it's extremely less-portable compared to my 2017 13" MBP it is nice to be able to do schoolwork on the couch without squinting at everything and constantly rearranging windows for optimum real estate. The new keyboard actually took a lot of time to get used to. It feels nice but my fingers were so used to the shallow keys on the 2017 keyboard that they weren't lifting high enough to move properly.

My OLED C7 has a dynamic brightness function that cannot be turned off through the TV settings and it drove me crazy when using it with an HTPC. It would alternate between bright and dim when scrolling through webpages. I wouldn’t use it as a PC monitor unless the new ones got rid of that. You can turn off ASBL in the service menu and supposedly that helps but you may blow up the tv Tiny Timbs fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Dec 9, 2019 |

Well yeah, no poo poo if you assign 128gb to a Windows VM or whatever it goes away. "Are you going to do VMs or not?" is a question that leads down two completely separate paths for use cases and general experience with different RAM configurations.

My 16" let itself go under load without ever turning the fans on, making it just a little toasty. I rebooted and the fans still didn't spin up. I downloaded Macs Fan Control and the fans started working again, then seemed to work as expected once I closed the program. Is this a known issue? I didn't see much when searching.
