can gddr3 memory be tested, ala memtest

[readymix]

the hd3650 i bought threw up 5 atikmdag errors in 2 weeks with vista. i don't recall
seeing this before with my old card, ati x1650xt. so, i put that old card back in and have'nt had a error in 6 days. no driver changes, i just let vista detect and install the new hardware. i'm assuming the hd3650 is defective and will return it regardless. but a vc test of some sort would be nice to know about in finding the culprit.

Furmark and crank it up to 32x msaa. Walk away from the computer. If it is still running a couple hours later, it's not the card.
