In my experience when it starts to mess up you get white screens or artifacts on boot. Apple had a replacement program on these so if you’re the second owner you might have gotten one that doesn’t overheat.
Original owner! I had a 2008 MBP that had an unfortunate… “accident” that allowed me to upgrade to the 2011 model in warranty.
Nice. Forgot to say: if you get the amd gpu disabled you lose the displayport. It’s hardwired into the radeon. Never known anyone who cared but its worth saying.
Weird, noted! I should dig up my adapter and see if it works now.
