CLGPUStress

Introduction

This program can be used for testing reliability of the graphics card and other the OpenCL devices. It was designed especially for testing GPU memory. CLGPUStress binaries are available for Linux and Windows operating systems (both for x86 and x86-64 architectures).

Because this program can be dangerous for devices, we recommend to read following caution:

THIS PROGRAM IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR GRAPHICS CARD AND CAN OVERHEAT OR DAMAGE YOUR GRAPHICS CARD! PLEASE USE CAREFULLY THIS PROGRAM. I RECOMMEND TO RUN THIS PROGRAM ON ALL STOCK PARAMETERS OF THE DEVICES (CLOCKS, VOLTAGES, ESPECIALLY GPU MEMORY CLOCK). YOU ARE USING THIS SOFTWARE ONLY AT YOUR OWN RISK!

CLGPUstess is distributed together with README.md file which contains documentation for program. The content of this file also is available at main site of at github.

About effectivity

Program has been tested on the Radeon HD 7850 graphics card and effectively detected errors in GPU memory (after few minutes a testing). Program can be significantly less efficient on the NVIDIA graphics cards or Intel GPUs. If you would like to help me to improve efficiently of a detection of the hardware errors by this program, please contact me.
