The simplest way is to see if you get video out of it. If you get video when you are running Windows, but not when you start up a video game, then the GPU is dead. If you don't get video at all, try another monitor, and of course try all the outputs from the video card -- most modern video cards have two or three. If there are strange video artifacts while playing Video Games, quite possibly the GPU is failing if it hasn't completely failed yet. Because video cards cannot be easily repaired, a simple go / no go is the best you can expect from any sort of troubleshooting; and if the video coming out of it is bad, the only recourse is to replace the card.
