FurMark 1.7.0

**MIG-31** · Jul 4, 2009, 06:42 PM

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).

Thanks for the heads up Mig I use this program a lot. One of the best programs out there to stress your graphics card and test temps.

I ran this just for fun, 230 points, on par with GF 8400GS, I suppose that's not bad for such an old geezer of a card.

Yep excellent program, used it twice on two different machines at a LAN, to solve stability problems on friends pc's.
