Reading your FPS result
A quick guide to what the number means before you compare it with friends.
Smooth — your GPU is comfortably handling raymarched shaders.
Usable — fine for most modern games and creative tools.
Heavy load — switch to Light or Medium mode for a fairer reading.
GPU under stress — likely integrated graphics or throttled by heat.
Different test modes are not directly comparable. Always compare the same mode.
Tips for phones & tablets
- Plug the device into power before starting a long run.
- Close background apps and disable low-power / battery saver.
- Run Light or Medium mode first, then step up to Heavy.
- Give the device a minute to cool down between runs.
Tips for Chrome / Edge / Safari
- Enable hardware acceleration in your browser settings.
- On Chrome / Edge open chrome://gpu to confirm WebGL 2 is using your GPU.
- On laptops, force the dedicated GPU instead of integrated graphics.
- Close other heavy tabs — a video on another tab can starve the benchmark.

Technical Principles
Volume Shader BM is a benchmark tool completely based on WebGL 2.0. Unlike traditional polygon-based game benchmarks, this tool uses Raymarching technology.
- Volume Rendering: We do not use any 3D model files. All pixels on the screen are calculated in real-time through mathematical formulas (SDF signed distance fields).
- Shader Load: The core of the test lies in the Fragment Shader. In Heavy mode, each pixel requires over 1000 loop iterations, greatly testing the GPU's ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) performance.
- Real Stress: This computationally intensive task can more accurately reflect the GPU's theoretical peak performance in scientific computing, AI inference, and complex rendering scenarios than regular games.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why does my device heat up severely during testing?
This is normal. This test pushes GPU usage to 100% through extensive mathematical calculations to test its peak performance. If you are using a laptop, please ensure good heat dissipation.
What does the test score mean?
The score combines average frame rate (FPS) and test duration. Higher scores indicate stronger GPU capability for processing complex shaders. Scores from different modes cannot be directly compared.
Why does the screen look laggy (low FPS)?
If your frame rate is below 15 FPS, it means the current test mode (such as Extreme) exceeds your GPU's load capacity. It is recommended to try Light or Medium mode.
Will my data be uploaded?
No. All rendering and calculations are completed in your local browser. We do not collect any hardware fingerprints or test results from you.
