Nope. And that symptom could be card, cable or monitor. If it's consistent, card is least likely, cable is possible, monitor input most likely (almost to a one, monitors have the cheapest components, including underrated little electrolytics). If it's intermitting, cable (connector/corrosion/board soldering) is most likely; this may depend on your environment. I work in a shop that gets in beaucoups of systems with these problems, and it's usually mechanical. I've yet to see a video card fail electronically -- except drastically.
