3D Graphics Test |
Top Previous Next |
Tests the OpenGL's graphics system.
This test creates and animates a rotating cube with a different color on each side to test the OpenGL functionality of the video card and it’s OpenGL capabilities.
For the 3D test a cycle is defined to be 200 frames of 3D animation. The ‘operations’ count represents the number of polygons displayed.
The test makes use of Qt's QOpenGLFunctions graphics class to run the test on systems that use OpenGL or OpenGL-ES (eg ARM embedded systems). If OpenGL or OpenGL-ES is not installed on your system, you will not be able to run this test (in fact you may not even be able to start BurnInTest). OpenGL can be downloaded from www.opengl.org and should come standard with all new versions of Linux distributions.
Warning: A number of manufacturers produce video cards, which have very poor software support for 3D graphics (OpenGL). This is especially the case for the cheaper, bottom of the range video cards. Poor drivers can result in strange visual artefacts appearing on the screen, poor 3D performance and system crashes.
Helpful command line tool [your_command_line_prompt]# glxinfo Displays your system's OpenGL's capabilities (if any).
