That also happened to my mid-2012 rMBPro, but, upon further research, I'd discovered that Apple had similar laptop GPU problems going back as far as 2007. There were also similar class action lawsuits to address the problem earlier.

What pissed me off the most was the fact that they kept shipping MBs with similar flaws year after year and when MB users complained, their strategy was to look away and pretend that it was users' fault. I initially had to pay $300+ to replace the logic board and eventually got all of it refunded.

Going back to 2003 in fact: http://macintoshhowto.com/hardware/how-do-i-get-my-broken-g4... http://johnbakersblog.co.uk/design-fault-in-apples-ibook-g4/ I had one of these laptops and Apple charged me £75 to look at it, and failed to fix it. Later the Danish Consumer Complaints Board investigated and found that there was a systematic fault in the solder joints.
