Software Recommendations For GPU Stress Testing

Euphoria

Hi LTTF, I'm looking for a few recommendations for good 'Tough' stress testing software to test my GPU's stability. I've always used a couple hours on Unigine Valley and Heaven, and a bit of 3DMark 11 as a suitable stability test, but due to a Windows reinstall I can no longer run Unigine software, and if I remember correctly, 3DMark 11 isn't that tough to pass. I think I remember reading that Furmark/Combuster is pretty weak too, is that correct???

So I'm wondering what you would recommend??? I currently only have AIDA64 Extreme installed which is a CPU test, but also does GPU's but I don't know if it's any good at GPU testing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm a little dubious of Furmark as it was abandoned over 5 years ago so it's pretty out of date, so it may not really push modern cards.

 

Googling beings up lots of guides and posts, many recommend Furmark, but 99% of those posts are from 2008-2013, and the few I've found from within the past 12-18 months, actively don't recommend Furmark as it's out of date and easy to pass. Most recommend Valley or Heaven haha, which are to 2 apps I physically can not use. Just my luck 9_9

According to Overclock.net, The Final Fantasy Heavensward benchmark will draw more power than anything.

Definitely heats my PC up the most.

It also loops, and is free.

Run in 4K even if your monitor isn't or don't bother.

Oh, I'd never even heard of that before, I'll give it a try. Thanks appreciate it.

Furmark

Furmark puts a dangerously extreme load on your Gpu more than you will ever see in games. Unigine Heaven/Valley are better.
