My suspicion is that vendors run such burn in tests only for a very brief time. That time being "the minimum time required to find the percentage of failed units above which it would cost us more if they were found to be bad in the field" - and not a second longer. Finding marginal memory, certainly one of the easier tests, can easily take 24 hours of testing. Somehow I cannot imagine vendors spending quite that long burning in a graphics card. Well, maybe a top of the line pro card, but certainly not your run of the mill $39 budget card.
