I just downloaded
FurMark to stress my 8800GT recommened by to me by EVGA support.
I'm using the GPU Burner mode (stability test). With MSAA enabled at x16 my card averages 6fps during the testing loop. It also runs hotter than I've ever had before (86c). It stresses my card more than Crysis does (79c with a much better
fps thank god). What a great little program.

OS supported: Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit)
This benchmark requires an OpenGL 2.0 compliant graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 5/6/7/8 (and higher), AMD/ATI Radeon 9600 (and higher) or a S3 Graphics Chrome 400 series with the latest graphics drivers.
FurMark is a small OpenGL benchmark focused on fur rendering.
The rendering algorithm is highly multipass (100 passes) and each pass (or layer) uses a GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) vertex / pixel shader to make the hairs finer and finer. To increase the fur realism, two dynamic lights are used for self shadowing. The benchmark offers several options allowing the user to tweak the rendering: fullscreen / windowed mode, MSAA selection, window size, duration. The benchmark also includes a GPU Burner mode (stability test).
