BFG 6800OC w/rivatuner

I just received the card today and was wondering what program or test do I need to run to see if the pipe and shader is unlocked and working fine.

do a search for 6800. There's plenty of threads in here discussing them. Search for my posts. I posted precise instructions detailing the whole procedure.

Play some games, loop 3dmark. You'll notice artifacts if the pipes and/or vertex shader are bad.

Trust me, you would know if it wasn't.

with the pipe on, the grpahics are weird in doom3 but the shader is ok. I didn't overclock or adjust anything else. should i adjust anything else? Or i'm just not that lukcy with this card?

My guess is, you aren't too lucky with that card. However, I've heard of people that we able to unlock the vertex shader and still overclock without artifacts. So, keep tweaking until you find the perfect balance. Remember to do small increments of core/memory speed, or you might regret it.
