FurMark 1.7.0 released

[Tigerboyce]

The new version of FurMark is here at last guys! After 4 months, it was time.

FurMark, is graphics card stability test (useful for overclocking) as well as an OpenGL graphics benchmark.

This new version is able to connect to GPU-Z and read data like GPU core clock, memory clock and GPU temperature. You can start / stop GPU-Z at anytime, FurMark detects it dynamically. GPU-Z data is displayed in Stability test mode.

Other cool new feature is the possibility to save your settings. Just start FurMark, adjust settings and quit. Your settings are saved in the startup_options.xml file. And of course, you can tweak yourself this file (with a text editor like Notepad++).

The main startup GUI (GUI = Graphical user Interface) is now always present. So you can launch several tests without restart FurMark.

In multi-GPUs configurations, there is now a temperature graph for each GPU.


Changelog:

* New: FurMark is now able to get detailed data from GPU-Z (if GPU-Z is running). In both Stability Test mode,
GPU-Z is used to display additional information (GPU core clock, memory clock, GPU temperature and power consumption).
In Benchmarking mode, GPU-Z is used to retrieve GPU core clock, memory clock, VDDC and VDDC current. Some data (like
VDDC and VDDC current) is only available on some graphics cards (like the GeForce GTX 280).
* New: In Benchmarking mode, you can now send your score to your Twitter account (this gadget is experimental).
* New: the main GUI is now always available so you can fire up several tests without the need to start again the application.
* New: main GUI (graphical user interface) settings are now saved and are re-used. Thanks to W1zzard for the idea
* New: in Stability Test mode, each GPU has now its own temperature graph.
* New: in Stability Test mode, you can enable/disable the display of information the I key.
* New: in Stability Test mode, you can enable/disable the fur rendering with the SPACE key. Thanks to David Legrand for the idea.
* New: added new standard resolutions: 800×600 and 1920×1080.
* New: added new interface translations:
- castilian (thanks to LordIntel)
- bulgarian (thanks to fellix)
- polish (thanks to rogalik)
- slovak (thanks to ufo and Peter H.)
- spanish (thanks to tech4pcs)
* Change: main startup GUI reorganization.
* Change: improved OpenGL rendering context creation.
* Change: log file renamed to FurMark_xxx.log
* Bugfix: GPU min temperature in temperature graph is now correctly updated.
* Bugfix: in multithreading management.
