Mini-ITX Technical Faults Riser Signal Integrity Loss: Data jitter caused by high-speed PCIe signal attenuation. Thermal Soaking: Heat migration from the GPU backplate to the motherboard. Capacitor Impedance Shift: Electrical instability due to extreme ambient heat. Cabling Pinch: Physical damage to power conduits within the tight chassis geometry.
