About:
Heaven Benchmark is an intensive GPU stress testing and benchmarking tool that evaluates DirectX 11 and OpenGL graphics performance. It utilizes a demanding real-time rendering engine with complex geometry, dynamic lighting, and volumetric clouds to push modern graphics hardware to its limits. The tool provides detailed performance metrics and is widely used for stability testing during overclocking and hardware evaluation.

Key Features:

Extreme GPU stress testing with tessellation and dynamic lighting
Real-time hardware monitoring with detailed FPS and frame time metrics
Multiple quality presets and customizable benchmark settings
Supports both DirectX 11 and OpenGL rendering APIs

Use Cases:

Stress testing graphics cards for stability and thermal performance
Comparing GPU performance across different hardware configurations
Validating overclocking stability and performance gains

Alternatives:

Unigine Superposition – Newer benchmark with more modern graphics engine and higher resolution support
FurMark – More focused on maximum thermal load rather than realistic rendering scenarios
3DMark – Comprehensive benchmark suite with broader game simulation tests
