Hi there, got my Macbook 16" i9 2.3 / 32gb / 5500 8gb / 1TB for some days now and noticed some small glitches when playing video in Google Chrome with multiple tabs and in windowed mode. You can see it here:
Also a screencapture of the video attached.

I've seen one more person that talked about something similar (with a red dot in FireFox when working in debugging mode). I already stressed the machine with video stresstests like Heaven and also some gaming and I never see any videoglitches. It only just happens on the edge of the window when using windowed Google Chrome. Side note: It only happens some times and it's hard to reproduce.

What do you guys think? A defect GPU or just a software/catalina glitch?


Bonus: I also have this (bigger) glitch when booting in recovery mode, but this only happens when starting recovery mode:
