MacBook: graphics card defective - what to do?

If the graphics card on your MacBook is defective, you really have a problem because, unlike on a PC or Mac, you cannot even replace the graphics card yourself quickly.

Help for the broken MacBook graphics card

Since the onboard graphics chip is soldered directly to the logic board of the MacBook, you cannot easily repair the damage yourself.

• In this case, the best thing to do is go to the nearest Apple store with the broken MacBook and ask what the repair would cost.
• If you don't have an Apple store near you, the Apple Customer Service page may be able to help you.
• If you are technically savvy, you can also buy a suitable defective MacBook and cannibalize it.
