Abstract

A graphics processing unit (GPU) of a GPU subsystem of a computing device operates in a first rendering mode to process graphics data to produce a first image. The GPU operates in a second rendering mode to process the graphics data to produce a second image. The computing device detects whether a fault has occurred in the GPU subsystem based at least in part on comparing the first image with the second image.
