There's no way to exclude overclocking as

Ah damn it, I really want to know if the video card death was caused by OC'ing cause the card is dead now and I can't prove that someone OC'ed the card and died...

You would probably need multimillion dollar hardware and do atomic level investigation with it.

Ask yourself these questions;
1 Did it work ok while it was not overclocked?

2 Did it die when it was overclocked?
