    Previous generation MacBook Pro models without GPU issues?

    I've been thinking about getting a used MacBook Pro. I'd like a model made between mid 2010 and 2015, but it seems a number of them have GPUs that will give out over time. From what I already know, it seems like 2012 pre-retina models are good, and pretty much anything after mid 2013 is okay...
