Does such a program exist? I have a video card that is possibly failing, is there any software that can run tests to see if my card is malfunctioning somehow? Although I highly doubt the card is the issue I am still curious if such software exists. By the way, my display drivers are crashing and recovering every few minutes while playing any STEAM game with my AMD hd6870 card in. I can watch any video or play any game i want with the exception of games downloaded through steam client. i have a backup nividia card that i bought for 20$ to see if it works and it did fix it!. This issue has been persistent for over 2 years, and i know the amd card is still solid because i can do everything and anything flawlessly EXCEPT play steam games WTF. Long story short im just looking for troubleshooting software that may help, thanks

Any benchmark tool will do (like 3Dmark). Try furMark. Its great at stressing the s*** out of the GPU. If you don't get crashes then probably nothing is wrong with the (GPU) hardware.
