My graphics card died

It's looks like my graphics card didn't like my proposal about go back to coding so she just decided to crash :)

It started to happens while loading some GPU Gems demos, and at first I thought it was just some drivers issue, but I downgraded them and it didn't go out

So looking throw the web I just found a nice tool called ATI Tool, and yes, in despite of the name of the tool it works with Nvidia cards too.

After running the artifacts test on my 9800GTX+ for around 2 mins. I got the following results

Lucky me, because I didn't throw my old 6600, so I can still use my computer until I'll get it back from the RMA
