Take a screenshot of the whole screen.

If it shows up in the screenshot, then that points to the GPU.


If it does not show up in the screenshot, then that points to the display.


Either way, you need to make a service appointment at your local Apple Store or AASP.

Also, when posting please provide MUCH more complete information otherwise we have to guess. The information in the following link is good for first time posters:
