Never spend a cent on '11 MBP! Hardware is ok on paper, but there were complaints about faulty GPUs since launch. I had no issues. Then in 3y or so Apple acknowledges the problem and starts a replacement program. I don't care as mine works fine. When the program ends in 2 months GPU in mine dies!🤬 No more external display, but it worked with iGPU. And in a couple of months my then-girlfriend fucked it up beyond repair somehow. I just cracked it open, took out RAM and SSD and put it on the shelf.
