NOTES
-----------

How to run:

Run "FirMark-Launcher.exe".
This sometimes gets recognized as Malware (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.H!ml). 
But it's safe to use as long as you downloaded this from a source that you trust.



About:

This is a DirectX 11 Benchmark inspired by the amazing "Furmark" - which I really adore.
Since no techniques like LODs were used, this is a very fill rate intensive benchmark. Each little tree gets the same amount of love and affection from your GPU.

FirMark was made in the amazing Tooll3 with some help and hints by Pixtur.
If you want to know more about Tooll: https://github.com/still-scene/t3

And there's a pretty high chance that I am going to release a making-of of this project. You will find out about it here: https://1x-vision.net




About V-Sync (and AMD GPUs):

V-Sync is turned off in the launcher by default. Otherwise the Framerate would be limited to the monitor refresh rate.

I've had problems with an AMD GPU not disabling V-Sync. This can be solved by setting "Wait for Vertical Refresh" to "Always Off" in AMD Adrenalin.
This Setting can be found here: Settings (cogwheel icon in the upper right corner) / Graphics / Wait for Vertical Refresh: "Always Off".
