I just installed an eVGA 8800GTS 640. I am using nTune or RivaTuner to try to OC it. When I raise the core and memory clocks, click Test, and it passes. I want to be able to run a stress test on it to insure stability. Does something exist for the video card?

Additionally, RTHDRIBL and ATITool can check for artifacts.

ATITool has an automatic artifact detector, but it's broken, so you must still watch the screen yourself. Let's just say the artifacts are very obvious: green pixels, color fading, etc. The latest build, 0.27 beta, also works with Vista and modern nVidia cards.

Ya I recently started using ATI Tool bc RivaTuner won't OC the 100-series drivers and the built-in stress tester works nicely. Heats the card up and shows artifacts in a pretty quick test that's only a small window and can be stopped any time.
