so my 7990 that was returned started artfacting already in a few games like Mafia II,watchdogs.

Before I send anything back i like to make a reproducible scenario for the testers. makes their lives easier & shows i put effort into helping them. :)

sometimes it happen in 20 minutes sometimes 1 hour. However when it does happen it happens a lot until you exit the game.

is their a decent program just to fill the VRAM & test each bit?
to see if i can see the problem

used Uniengine Valley it found nothing after 3 benchmark runs but only used 2.2GB of 3GB

Issues seen:
Random red dot patterns
Colour Lines Textures
Sometimes Very slow response
(its running at say 60fps but it looks like its in slow motion) then catches up
& artfacts everywhere after
 
doesnt allow you to test both gpus?

my problem only seems to be on the second card :(

Firestrike Extreme preset

Vantage Extreme preset

Hevean 4, highest resolution you can run, also try the lowest.

One of the above should be able to knock over a card with dodgy VRAM.

You can also try running Sleeping Dogs benchmark using the settings in the thread, this should also find a VRAM fault.
