Also...
and this is most important...
DONT OVERCLOCK MORE THEN ONE THING AT A TIME!!!!
Is your videocard failing or your Motherboard do to the usage of some stress test the VC uses...
God only knows and I cant tell you...
I hate to say this, but I just can not, nor will I help you anymore until you first uninstal ati-Tool, uninstall catalyst, then goto http://www.driverheaven.net/ and use their drivercleaning program.
Then re-install Catalyst Drivers, and then DONT enable the default OC utility, run and overclock the machine till you find the correct settings... If its stable for a week, without crashing... and if its stable at prime... then either A) push your processor more, or B) enable the DEFAULT catalyst OC utility...
Again, run it for a week... write down the numbers... check for artifacts in games (watercoolers you may get artifacts after an hour or more of a heavy game because of the time it takes to max out the heat of your water... and your water WILL get warm...) then make adjustsments...
If you are using watercooling, and your videocard is on the same watersource as your cpu... make sure you test the CPU with a 3DMark, then when the water gets warm, run Prime... ATI cards run REALLY hot... and Warm water up ALLOT! I run a LARGE radiator, and will get 10-15 more degrees with my Videocard running a game, even though my processor my not be near 100%.
Now is when I have to get a bit firm... Dont come back here posting about OC problems with video cards if you dont take the time to do one thing at a time... We, at least I, just cant solve your problem... Sorry, but its the blunt truth... I dont know if your video card is failing or your motherboard...
ATI Tool is a GREAT tool, but with stock cooling the performance gain you will see will be very nominal, unless you want to turn your fan on 100% and hear that vortex for the rest of your life
