A new beta version of Kombustor, MSI’s GPU stress test and benchmarking tool, is available.
Kombustor 2.1.2 does not bring big new things except a little update at the level of the on-screen information in the 3D window.
A GPU loadmeter as well as a GPU thermometer are now displayed in the 3D zone. The GPU loadmeter is useful in fullscreen mode with multi-GPU systems (SLI or CrossFire). It behaves like NVIDIA SLI Visual Indicator, allowing to know if all GPUs are properly loaded.
The old 3D GPUs (top-right) have been replaced by a simple (and neater) graphics card image.
The audio system in use in KMark, the OpenGL 4 benchmark, has been fully updated and replaced by OpenAL + Ogg/Vorbis.
Kombustor branch 2.1.x is an intermediary branch (I prepare the path for the next version). Real new things will take place with the branch 2.2.x, which is already in the works!

“The program can’t start because D3DCompiler_42.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”
I’ve gotten this message through about 5 re installs now
To get D3DCompiler_42.dll, launch the DXSETUP.exe in the DirectX_Install/ folder in Kombustor directory.
