Can I use my iMac (late 2009) with faulty GPU as an external monitor?
My iMac is showing vertical bars upon startup. It is a Graphics Card problem which is expensive to solve for a 10 year old machine, so I have decided to purchase a new PC instead and was wondering if I can use the iMac as an external monitor using Target Display mode. My question is, Does Target Display mode need a fully functioning GPU on the iMac, since it is essentially being used as a display using input from another PC?
Is dit een goede vraag?
Have you given Target Display Mode a try?

Not yet... The imac is out of action and I don't have another PC to try it out yet.
