crysis demo does it, 3dmark 06 demo does it
crysis is being used more by gamers for the gpu, but 3dmark 06 has a smaller file size,
Not sure how to test your GPU alone, as most of the benchmarking systems use processor aswell

you ave to use a program called ATI Tool the test for artifacts. This will test the GPU to see if it will work in the most demarning applications. It will work with both nVidia and ATI cards as well.

I would leave it scanning for arround 30 mins to check that an overclock is ok

Ok thanks all, i don't want to overclock i just wanted to make sure my Card was ok, because i knocked my PC, and when i booted the screen went fuzzy and i had to reboot. I did a 3dMark06 and all seems fine.
