3.2 TessMark (OpenGL 4)
Hardware tessellation is one of the big features of Direct3D 11 and OpenGL 4 capable graphics cards. TessMark is a new benchmark focused only on the tessellation engine of DX11 class cards. It’s a pure tessellation benchmark, it does not contain complex shader or other heavy texture fetches. TessMark shows an overview of the tessellation engine raw power, that’s all. DX11 specifies that the tessellation factor can vary from 1.0 up tp 64.0. Of course, for tessellation factors like 32 or 64, most of the tessellated triangles are smaller than… a pixel. In those cases, tessellation is useless and in a real world application such as a game, high tessellation factors won’t be used. But in the case of a synthetic benchmark, it’s always instructive to see how cards can handle the whole range of tessellation level.
TessMark 0.3.0 has been used for the test.
Settings: 1920×1080 fullscreen, no AA, 60sec, map set 1.
Rule: The higher the number of points, the faster the card is.

ASUS ROG MATRIX GTX 580 review index
ASUS ROG MATRIX GTX 580 gets the best performances in all tests!
A great GC for a great review, thanks JeGX!!!
Really Monster !!!
Pingback: FurMark at DreamHack 2011 | JeGX's HackLAB
how come yous did and go head to head with the msi 580 lighting ???
the difference between the reference GTX580 and the MATRIX is like the difference between mercedes E220 and E-Brabus .
Just posted my Furmark at 1047mhz = score 9279
Details for score ID = 218766
Do be a wimp and turn it up!
@Corwyn: yep nice score indeed. Is it a ROG Matrix? What is the GPU voltage?
Yes ROG GTX580 Matrix Platinum – The GPU voltage was 1.15
Core Clock 1047mhz
Core Voltage 1150mv
memory clock 4800mhz
(just joking about turning it up(was excited))
bonjour,
j’ai ma gtx580 matrix, elle chauffe avec fumark alors que elle tourne a 831, mem 2019, voltage 1150v
mais la temperature depasse toujours les 99 °
p-e que il n’y a pas assez de ventilation ?
pourriez vous m’aider.
