Question Best benchmark to test gpu stability? (Full test for artifacts , vram , and power limit)

[mat1995]

Hello

I think i´m seeing rare artifacts( don´t follow a pattern) , maybe once in a month

I´m wondering if there is a way that i could fully test my gpu through a benchmark?

Thank you

What GPU?

Unigine Heaven benchmark will loop until it is stopped.

Also, use something like HWInfo64 to monitor your GPU's temps and more.

There's newer software for benchmarking.. I remember one that is using the latest Unreal Engine 5, I think it will loop until it is manually stopped.

Other's include 3DMark Fire Strike or Time Spy.

I don't think one should overlook the old classic Furmark either.
It puts quite a bit of stress on a CPU, gets it good and hot.

Is it safe to use furmark?

I have a rtx 3060 12gb

I´ve tested these benchs but they dont use vram that much
I also don´t get any crashes when playing games or stuff like that
I´m not so sure if what i saw was a artifact but still

Are you actively updating your GPU drivers via Nvidia?

Yes

if my gpu has artifacts at all i would not show up like once in every month right?

Wouldn´t it be constant and crashing often?

Thank you
