- Disp.A: Display Active is a flag that decides if you want to allocate memory on a GPU device for display

- Memory-Usage: Denotes the memory allocation on GPU out of total memory.

- Volatile Uncorr. ECC: ECC stands for Error Correction Code which verifies data transmission by locating and correcting transmission errors.
