Is there a program like ATITool for nVidia cards?

I accidentally posted in the wrong forum, so I'll just repost here. I'm sorry about that.

Anyway, in a few days I'm going to try to fix up my sister's computer so that it can better handle the heat that she insists on putting it through (she insists on putting it inside a sort of cabinet thing with only an open back to provide any airflow...) Not to mention that her room itself is hot enough to make toast on any metal surface you can find. d-: She has my old Gainward Ultra video card, which means it can take some punishment, but, I'd love a program like ATITool which can be set to automatically find the safest speeds for the memory and GPU and scan for artifacts the entire time. This way I can try to get a good idea where she needs to have it set to prevent long term damage. Especially since the main reason I got rid of it and got this card was because I was more than a little afraid that I had already damaged it ever so slightly from too much overclocking. If I had, it was subtle, but, nonetheless, if it is previously damaged, that surely makes it easier to do more serious damage to it. Anyway, enough rambling. Is there such a program? Or do I just have to do it all manually?
 
Hrm, how does this work? Seems like such a thing might not be too accurate to me.

Heh its just as accurate as any auto-overclocking tool. Doing it manually is still the best bet, using an auto-oc tool a few times to get a general starting point marker.
 
Alright. I'll take your word for it and give it a shot next time I'm over there. Hopefully we can find a safe mark for such a hot PC.

Can you believe that they had it set with the video card pressed against a network card? The GPU hsf was actually TOUCHING the network card... That must have been rather horrible for both... I didn't have time to look at the whole case thoroughly when trying to improve it then, but, this time around we are going to take a serious look at the thing.
