Common questions about GPU stress testing and volume shader performance analysis
Volume shader benchmarking uses complex 3D volumetric rendering and ray marching algorithms that create sustained GPU workloads similar to professional 3D rendering and modern gaming. Unlike traditional benchmarks that test burst performance, volume shader burn and measure testing reveals how GPUs handle extended thermal stress and continuous parallel processing demands.
During volume shader benchmark testing, GPUs generate significant heat as they process complex volumetric calculations. Thermal throttling occurs when GPUs reduce clock speeds to prevent overheating, directly impacting sustained performance. Our volume shader benchmark measures this through the SLS (Sustained Load Score) metric, quantifying performance retention over extended testing periods.
Our volume shader benchmark works with any modern GPU supporting WebGL2 or WebGPU. For optimal results, we recommend graphics cards with at least 4GB VRAM and modern architectures. The browser-based approach means no software installation is required, making it accessible for comprehensive GPU performance testing across different systems.
For comprehensive thermal analysis, we recommend 30-minute volume shader benchmark sessions. This duration provides sufficient time for GPUs to reach thermal equilibrium and reveal sustained performance characteristics. However, 15-minute tests offer a balance between thoroughness and testing time, while 10-minute quick checks can identify obvious thermal issues.
