    Severe PCB corrosion from a leaky PCB mounted Ni-Cd battery. Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are vulnerable to environmental influences; for example, the traces are corrosion-prone and may be improperly etched leaving partial shorts, while the vias may be insufficiently plated through or filled with solder.

    This number is generally used as a maximum throughput number for the GPU and generally, a higher fill rate corresponds to a more powerful (and faster) GPU. Memory subsection. Bandwidth – Maximum theoretical bandwidth for the processor at factory clock with factory bus width. GHz = 10 9 Hz. Bus type – Type of memory bus or buses used.

  7. Memory leak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak

    The disadvantage to this arrangement is that the operating system sometimes must be re-configured to allow proper operation of programs that legitimately require large amounts of memory, such as those dealing with graphics, video, or scientific calculations. If the memory leak is in the kernel, the operating system itself will likely fail ...

  8. Micro stuttering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_stuttering

    Micro stuttering is a quality defect that manifests as irregular delays between frames rendered by a graphics processing unit (GPU). It causes the instantaneous frame rate of the longest delay to be significantly lower than the frame rate reported by benchmarking applications such as 3DMark , which usually calculate the average frame rate over ...

  9. Screen tearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing

    Some graphics systems let the software perform its memory accesses so that they stay at the same time point relative to the display hardware's refresh cycle, known as raster interrupt or racing the beam. In that case, the software writes to the areas of the display that have just been updated, staying just behind the monitor's active refresh ...
