Testing a Graphics Card

[Willis]

If I wanted to test a graphics card is there a program I can use to see it is fully working

if it works and you get a display with no problems... its working... lol

but if you want to bench the card or stress test it download Unigine Valley

I use Furmark, or MSI Kombustor.

Keep an eye on temps with furmark as it will heat card up a lot more than a real world game

furmark is a gpu killer... dont use it

 

[postmanfw]

occt do one that has a gpu stabilty tester built in...not sure what others think of it though.

Run some games with it, something like BF4/BF3, Sleeping Dogs etc! If a cards faulty they'll pick it up.

Heaven 4 extreme settings at as high a resolution as possible, this will really test a GPU.
