2 – Release Notes
A new version of FurMark 2 is available to overheat your GPU. FurMark 2 is a stress test utility for graphics cards as well as a graphics benchmark (OpenGL and Vulkan).
FurMark 2.3 main changes are:
1/ the support of Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit, arm64/aarch64) has been added. On Raspberry Pi 4 board, FurMark 2 runs at 1 FPS (res: 1024×640). The new Raspberry Pi 5 hardware is a lot faster: we reach 4 FPS (still at 1024×640). Currently I disabled the Presets benchmarks because the score submission interface is not really usable with these framerates. FurMark 2 for Raspberry Pi OS has been compiled on Debian 11 and is built with GLIC 2.31. I tried to remove Raspberry Pi dependencies and I hope this version will work on other arm64/aarch64 platforms.
2/ the fan speed is now available in the GPU monitoring zone:
3/ a graphics bug (horizontal line) has been fixed. This visual artifact was caused by a bug in the management of OpenGL versions in previous FurMark 2. This glitch was present in the OpenGL 2.1 render path only. The OpenGL 3.2 and Vulkan render paths use a slightly different shader.
