rmbp

I think I stumbled upon something here, I wanted to check how much my CPU was Throttling under heavy load and I saw my CPU going down to 2.8 /2.9 Ghz while in Clamshell mode albeit at 99C Now, I wanted to test if opening the laptop would yield any different result due to improved thermals but...

Hi. Had a 2014 MBPr for a couple of weeks, sensational computer. Unfortunately it suffered an accident (liquid damage) and the repair cost was not worth it anymore. I don't live in a country with major Apple presence, but the Apple authorized service provider told me the SSD (256GB) is...

Can anybody confirm if Auto Unlock does or does not work on the Mid 2012 rMBP? I've seen that it doesn't work on a Late 2012 Mac mini, but the rMBP was a bit ahead of its time in connectivity and I imagine Apple isn't dotting the i and crossing the t on the beta docs. Figure if there is one...

I've got a chance to get a new rMBP 13" 2015 base model for $1000 out the door. My other options are these: 1. rMB 2016 with the M5 chip (I've got this one now but am well inside the return window) 2. rMBP 2016 13" base model when ever it comes out for retail price (I'm assuming it'll be...

Question: I haven't seen a quorum on this topic so I'm raising the topic and if anyone else has an opinion let me know.... I'm buying a 15" rMBP when they come out and am seriously considering buying the 2GB dGPU. I know the answer depends on what I do - I'm not a gamer, occasionally...

Hello, I'm interested in setting up a new rMBP 15" w/ AMD Radeon R9 M370X to dual display two Dell P2415Q 4K monitors. I'm curious to know if this is compatible? If so, what accessories will I need to make it happen? Also, would a docking station (plug and go) work with this combo? If so, what...

Hi! I'm running on a late 2014 Retina MacBook Pro 13" which is a 2560x1600 display (I think). When you go into System Preferences on the display options the "Default for Display" is said to "look like 1280x800". I have QuickRes which is a piece of software that lets you change your resolution...

I also just got my rMBP back from Apple after having it's screen replaced under the staingate program. Anyone else see increased fan usage under normal usage, including web browsing and document production?

Hi guys Sorry about the wall of texts but I want to give all the information I have. My macbook keeps on freezing since I picked it up from apple store after a display replacement. The staff at the Apple store aren't exactly helpful and don't want to take responsibilities for it or help at...

Hello, for more than a month now, ever since I updated to the final 10.11.4 my macbook completely freezes in Safari and other apps at random times, about once a week. It usually happens when I click on a link, switch tabs, go back one page, etc. The cursor freezes, the screen freezes, the...

I'm very close to clicking "begin checkout" on B&H for the rMBP 8gb/128gb, but two things are holding me back: next week's event (although, I don't mind having an older model of what will possibly be released since I don't use my MBP for gaming, photo/video editing, etc. - an older...

I purchased my rMBP a Year ago and Yesterday after charging a few moments later I heard a Popping sound as if something had blown up. There was a faint smoke smell but i didn't suspect it to be the charger . When i plugged in the charger later on it was DEAD. There are no signs on the charger...

just got new 15 rmbp. When i close it the dock goes half way down and freezes and then the computer closes. Is this a glitch?? Is this normal?? I updated to current version right away.

Hello, I have a mid 2014 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display (with the discrete NVIDIA GPU). A little backstory before I get beat on for asking such a seemingly trivial question: Since I first got the computer in November 2014, things haven't been working with it quite as expected. When I...

Hello there, I guess you've seen this post many times in the forum but all I found is about different models. I'm looking for an external monitor for my rMBP with the same resolution of my mac (I don't want to sacrifice resolution). In the about my mac display section, it says 15.4-inch (2880...
