Hi and welcom

I suggest you try a stress test like FurMark?

FurMark: VGA Stress Test, Graphics Card and GPU Stability Test, Burn-in Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net

A word of warning. Don't leave it unattended and watch your card temp displayed within the utility - press Esc if it gets to high (above 90).

Thank you for replieing so quickly,but I have a question. Could you kind of explain what EXACTLY this is and what its supposed to do xD? I know its supposed to heat up the graphic card (Which kind of scares me O_O) I really don't want to do anything to mess up this computer xD

It just displays a very complex image which requires a lot of processing by your graphics card - hence the heat.

What you need to look for is any distortion in the image as the card works harder. As long as you don't allow the temp to go too high it won't damage your PC.

If there are distortions then you have a problem with your Graphics Card, if the image is okay we need to look for the problem elsewhere.:D

You should look for vert or horizontal lines and bleeding or pixelation within the image.
