A GPU can produce errors/corruption way before a driver crash/reset is prompted, and at much lower clocks than than those at which artifacts become visible to the eye.

I have the same standards of stability for my GPUs as I do my CPUs, so seeming sorta maybe stable for a few hours of a game is no where near good enough. All the GPUs and OCs/cooling I use can run OCCT, or any other conceivable test, indefinitely, without issue, and I wouldn't tolerate any less.

Do you have Windows 7/XP to test it with? could be Windows 8 is not correctly supported.
My old GTX 470 was always having stability issues with those programs even at stock. Once it reaches 95 C It will get thousands of errors in OCCT, GPUTool & EVGA OC Scanner.
However at the time I used the card I never experienced driver errors or crashes even after hours of playing games, just in those programs.

I mentioned it originally, but just want to emphasize that the test runs without detecting errors if I just leave the OCCT window where it is. Selecting different windows causes fps to drop, but does not cause errors. I ran OCCT for 40 minutes successfully without errors, but had to basically leave the computer alone while it ran the test.

Could be buggy program, if your card don't show any signs of instability in games I won't worry about it honestly.
You can also use EVGA OC Scanner and see if you have the same problem.

Just wanted to update you guys. OC Scanner ran without showing any artifacts. And I didn't have any issues with frame rate drops or the like. Looks like I'll just have to use OC Scanner instead of OCCT. Maybe it just doesn't support Windows 8 yet.
