Radeon Pro 460 here, no problems. I feel bad for people getting faulty GPUs. At least Apple will cover the repairs or exchange.
So unfortunate, I'm sorry. Have you taken it in to the Apple store, or given Customer Care a call?
455 here, no issues. What do the unrecoverable GPU reset loops look like? Failure to boot up or log in? Is this a situation where disabling FileVault does not help? Not that disabling FileVault is a good workaround, IMO.
They told me to take it to an Apple Store, but no reservations are available until next week...
Do you have iCloud Photo Library activated? For me the panics occur when the upload process runs and "ImageConversionService" maxes out the GPU
Might have something to do with the recent iPhone repair program launches.
If the Apple Store is reasonably close by, its worth just stopping in to see if they can fit you in. I have had success with going in and getting a spot even though reservations were full for the next several days. They might feel sorry for you since you are having trouble with a new machine.
With respect to the OP, I wish I could vote in the poll, but sadly, my computer won't be here until mid December
460 here, had some very minor artifacts in some videos and images. Got a replacement (for another reason) and haven't noticed it on here. Software or hardware? Seems some units are unaffected so it could be hardware.
If you're getting replacements and they're unaffected I'd be willing to wager that AMD are putting out bad chips again.
Well judging from the poll, it seems that more than half of the people with a 460 are experiencing ZERO problems. I would keep my order as is and see how things go.
When I experienced it on my returned MBP I believe it was the iGPU. Probably has nothing to do with the AMD graphics.
Same for me. I exchanged for a new machine with the same 460 card and no issues so far!
But was it active, or system tried to launch it, and failed to do so? Because thats what can cause the glitches.
This is very worrying as a result already at this stage: 1 MBP pro 460 out of 2 is defective! Wooaw
I start wondering if I will not cancel my order for my MBP pro 460.

It had been active already for some time according to iStat Menus. A user in another thread isolated the issue that multiple people including myself are facing.
