Vertical Stripes on the display and rebooting continuously

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,[br]
[br]
Last Sunday, was a bad day for me. My wonderful MacBook Pro 17” (Late 2011) out of the blue first rebooted and then after started to reboot into an infinite loop and displaying equally identical vertical stripes showing the Apple logo followed by the booting progress bar hidden behind those vertical stripes and in the end rebooting again and restarting the cycle again continuously.[br]
[br]
I upgraded my MacBook Pro to to 16GB RAM and an Intel SSD 1TB, of course following your awesome advises on your awesome site, including buying your tools kit as I’m a DIY dude.[br]
[br]
The first time the laptop started the error was out of the blue, it rebooted and here is the sequence of images after it shutdown by itself:[br]
-
This is the first image that it appeared after the impromptu reboot:
[image|2564210]
This is booting the MacOS from the SSD:
[image|2564209]
Then I see the progress bar reading the MacOS from the SSD
[image|2564207]
And at the end of this sequence I got to this empty image:
[image|2564208]
When I try to boot the machine with internet access by holding down Command+Option+R this is the message I get:
[image|2564211]
To be honest I fear it might be the logic board that might be damaged and that will have to be replaced.
Those two images are my machine from the outside and an inside image:
[image|2564217]
[image|2564218]
I have so far checked the SSD and it’s fine and I will wait another set of 2x8 GB SODIMM 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM that I purchase for my Mac 27” (Mid 2011) to upgrade to 32GB. I will test it first in the MAcBook Pro to check if it’s a memory issue.
Please let me know what else I could do? I really appreciate any suggestion before I go and check a local Apple approved Technical Services.
I really appreciate you reading my message and provide some helpful suggestions.
