How to test video memory like desktop memory?

[sep]

We've all ran programs that tested the desktop memory for errors. Anyone know of a program that will run through all your video card memory and check for errors?

Or do I have to use something like 3dMarks, Sandra, etc.

The reason I ask this question is when I was putting my heatsinks on I might of gotten some ASII on the pins, might that is, and want to make sure everythings okay.

Load up your favorite game, make sure it's using lots of textures (so the video card's memory will be filled), and use your eye to check for rendering errors (artifacts).

Yea, if it doesnt artifact or lock up then you are good to go.

I was hoping to find a way to simply tell me if I messed up my card. When overclocked to ony 290/570 I see a colored page tear once a week in RTCW and a couple line tears in BF1942 every so often. I've taken it higher without artifacts before. I just can't remember if it was before or after the heatsinks.
