Why is FurMark so demanding?

FurMark is a very intensive OpenGL benchmark that uses fur rendering algorithms to measure the performance of the graphics card. Fur rendering is especially adapted to overheat the GPU and that's why FurMark is also a perfect stability and stress test tool (also called GPU burner) for the graphics card.

How hot is too hot for GPU?

90-100 degrees is the hot range. 80-85 is the "limit" before the GPU itself starts heavy throttling (turbo gets reduced at lower temps). Temps on the 100 celsius are the "dangerous" ones, as they force heavy performance downclocking as well as turning off the GPU if it reaches even higher temps without controlling it.

Can you fix a dead GPU?
