A memory test screen that claims the test passed with no errors, while somehow the display itself has at least three errors on it.

The issue turned out to be bad capacitors.

A theory I have about why that happened that way and didn't get detected...

The bad caps might have been for the GPU slot power, and the glitch might have actually occurred in the GPU VRAM, not the system RAM.

Sigh, we'll never know for sure...
