How can you tell if your phone GPU is defective?

So I was running Antutu on my international S3 and the first time it ran, it ran all bluish looking during the sword swinging portion of the benchmark. I was simultaneously running it with my Galaxy Nexus, and the Nexus looked fine so I was like "hmm, that's weird." I then looked up other Antutu benchmark results online for the S3 and it turns out they all do that.

HOWEVER, I went back and retested it again, and this time, just as the sword swinging section came up, the screen went completely yellow, and you pretty much couldn't see anything. I was wondering if this is normal. Is it Antutu being glitchy, or could there be something up with my phone?And is there a way to check the status of the GPU to see if everything is functioning properly?

The International s3 has a different gpu then the US variant forums you're in. Try posting on the international boards. I've never seen this on my US variant, not that that helps you

I must have completely missed that I am in the US version of the forums. Is there a way for a mod to move it, or do I have to repost?
