Re: How can I test the graphics card?

Serkan,

I am assuming that this Nvidia video card is in a laptop?

Is your GUI using Wayland?  If it is, for testing purposes, I recommend switching back to X11.

You may have a hardware fault?

Hoping that you do not have a hardware fault, I would recommend installing Nvidia proprietary drivers.

I would install and then run nvidia-detect and install the nvidia drivers it recommends.
# apt install nvidia-detect
# nvidia-detect
# apt install [package recommended by nvidia-detect]

If these drivers causes issues you should be able to remove the nvidia drivers by
# apt purge nvidia*

This Debian Wiki explains Nvidia proprietary driver installation better than I can:
https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers

For testing Nvidia drivers I like to use glmark2
# apt install glmark2

If your GUI is using Wayland, then also install glmark2-wayland 
# apt install glmark2 glmark2-wayland

$ glmark2
or 
$ glmark2-wayland      (for Wayland systems)

Hope this helps.

George.
