Stress a 6600GT video card?
I just installed a 6600GT card in a machine. Can someone suggest a really simple (hopefully) download that I can use to put stress on the card to see how much it heats up. Thanks.

rthdribl is good. I pronounce it "rt-dribble"
As for games, Age of Empires III heats up my card even hotter than rthdribl for some reason - and it started artifacting - whereas rthdribl, ATI tool and looped 3dmark05 never artifacted. Surprising huh?
PS. Age of Empires III settings were all set to the highest quality, 1280 x 1024

Its not an official ATI tool:mg1394 wrote:I couldn't fine ATI Tool on the ATI site. Did I do a poor search?

My card temperature shot up extremly high when running both rthdribl along with prime95 and 3dmark03. My computer was extremly slowed down by this, it took several minuts to even get all the programs running simultaniously. But when I did, my load temperature shot from 62C to 85C! 62 is the max I have when only running one program.. try to run something CPU-intensive in the background.

Interesting. I must try that, although my CPU is folding hard all the time, benchmark or not
