How to stress test and record results for a video card

So I have ATI Tool and the Artifact option is good but it is only good if you kepp staring at the screen for the artifacts as the tool will mention an artifact than will go back to saying No Errors for xx.xx.xx which will also not change. I have been running it for the past hour but was away from the screen and it says No errors but it could also mean that maybe an artifact showed up and than it went away. Also temps top out at 65. Am I being too paranoid here?
 
i also want to know if there is any other program that tests videocard for artifacts and other such measures!
 
ATITool creates a log file. I think it puts any artifact detection in it as well as any clock rate modification. You can open the log file by clicking on setup I believe and then navigating to the right page. I don't have it running now. But, if you cannot find it, i will look for it when I get home.
 
by looking at the topic you said you flashed 7900GTO to 7900GTX? I don't think ATITool to work with 7900 version only any Radeon cards.
 
2006-10-17 14:40:52 I Scan for Artifacts started... Core: 650.00 MHz Memory: 800.00 MHz
2006-10-17 19:14:41 I Scan for Artifacts stopped Total runtime: 16429 seconds

found it. also how do I run loops of 3dmark? I have the free version and I get no options
 
So, what should my temperature be if i'm running a x1900xtx?

I installed ATITool .25 beta, and these are the temperatures/other things:

56
8.2A
27%
67
55

While scanning for artifacts, it goes up to..

59
27.3
36%
83
56

... and that's where i stopped because those are pretty high temperatures 😛 Should these temperatures be lower?

No.

Those temps are quite normal for X1900XT/Xs
I'd suggest getting ATiTool & manually setting fan speed if you want lower temps.
