I started experiencing GPU panics on rMBP in the past week as well, I guess NVidia or related circuits have some issues. I switched it off using gfxcardstatus and now it's stable running on Intel HD only. Try to do the same - if it stops crashing, your discrete GPU might be damaged.
- amirmansour 12y agoI had the same issue with my mid-2010 MBP. They actually had a recall, but I was late to it! I'm somewhat disappointed that this issue still persists in some later models. gfxcardstatus helped a little in my situation, but the problem got so bad that I literally could not used the computer. $3K down the drain :(
- mattgreenrocks 12y agoMe too. I suspect Chrome to be involved, if only because they had this problem back in 2012 as well, around the time the rMBP came out.
- junkblocker 12y agoI noticed Chrome crashing whenever I was in the Chrome store too many time. The 'graphics error happened' message after the crash was another clue. So I turned off native graphics acceleration in Chrome's setting and it's not crashed since then.
- mattgreenrocks 12y agoYeah, I hate posting "I think it's such and such" without looking at logs, but realistically, very few apps are trying to be their own OS.
