ok so what i wanted to find out is if MSI Kombustor is as bad a furmark on GPU's ? was running in on burn-in and GPU was getting to 90C and only went down when i put fan on MAX.

I use Kombustor I like it. So its bad because it got your gpu to 90C? Im confused sorry. 

[s3ns3]

yes and jeez take care of that laptop gpu

[clementk]

no i meen like is it like wen you use Prime95 on CPU that wen on normal load would never get that temps?

[clementk]

when playing Crysis 3 on Max i get 70-80 C that is same as stock temps still using stock Voltage

Kombustor basically makes your GPU produces as much heat as it can, it's not practical to leave it on for a long period of time. If you were overclocking there are better/more reliable ways to check for stability.

okay my GPU is stable i just wanted to make sure temps where still fine but when i saw how MSI Komustor test looks i though this wount do this is furmark

Konbuster is exactly FurMark.

MSI bought a license from the maker of FurMark, and have it have MSI logo on it.

FurMark or Kombuster doesn't test your GPU stability, only if can handle max possible heat that it might potentially get in a game.

It doesn't test every single feature of the GPU to make sure that everything is working correctly, which can lead to graphical glitches or stability issue.

I think the GPU is stable been playing BF3 and crysis 3 and some BF4 beta as wel as running 3dmark lats of times trying to get fasters 675MX gpu lol but i can only get 2nd as i dont want to overvolt. just wanted to see how hot it would get. underload and saw i had it on the system. just then wen i saw it looks like furmark i knew it would probebly give very high temps
