Problem with card???

Sparky

I recently got a 6600GT GFX card and decided to run 3dmark 03 on it to see how it does, now i left the clocks at stock settings core 500 memory 900
but i noticed a lot of artifacts appear on the troll layer test and on the ragtroll test, so i overclocked the card to core 550 and memory 1.06ghz to see if it gets worse and it was'nt, there were less, but im wondering is this a card fault or something else in my system??

I got 6481 on standard clocks and 7281 on overclocked,

ive played devestation on everthing full and hav'nt noticed any artifacts, would ati tool work with the 6600gt?

I am pretty certain that the standard clocks for a 6600GT are 500 core and 500 (1000 effective) on the ram. Is it a PNY branded card by chance, because they have a 6600GT with lower clocked than the norm ram.
Also use Rivatuner, ATI tool is only for Radeon cards.

Could just be what the trolls look like, the pixel shading isn't the neatist, i thought it was artefacts at first.
