Why is FurMark so demanding?
Registered. Intentionally inefficient coding. if it’s inefficient, the software won’t be able to make good use of a gfx real power. i would say furmark utilizes more calculations and memory intensive routines.
How reliable is FurMark?
As with any stress testing software, it’s as safe as the person using it. If temperatures stay within tolerance, they’re perfectly fine for testing the stability and integrity of your hardware. If you experience crashes, then it is indicating faulty hardware or unstable overclocks.
