no crashdump, just bam and gone.
it ran three time yesterday perfectly fine with the older driver.
naughty Rhino.
Hey… waaaait a minute… If you hack my stuff you owe me a beer! 
By the way, here is my old, dual Xeon workhorse with the 1070 running at 8x AA:
Update:
Here’s the same system where AA is reduced to 2X.
And here it is a NO AA:
Impressive to see that 8X doesn’t affect the score much at all.
Thanks for the update.
My 6700k and gtx 1080 still looking nice here.
I am thrilled to see my gpu usage up to 80% for the first time in viewport performance.
Going to put a heavy overclock on in the next few days and see what happens.

@ra_mull is your CPU overclocked? I have the same CPU but my CPU-score is only 17193, compared to your 19018.
It’s the meshing of the mini that is twice the speed for some reason.
And sr10 vs sr11 and 4xAA vs 8xAA are the differences I can see.
Hmm, I tried running Holomark2_R6, but Rhino just disappeared during/after GPU_20.
Now running it in a debug instance of Rhino with debugger attached. Man, that’s a lot of errors.
ok, that might be the reason. can’t test it anymore though.
there was an update for a second? SR11, today. just did that but holomark still crashes. happens again when it comes to the 2d drawing tests at the end.
Strange, I have not had a single crash here, but i only use nVidia and Intel. (I have tried AMD/ATI before, and I do not trust their drivers… )
Hm, that would not surprise me as I have learned a lot since Holomark2 came out and Holomark2_R6 is just an adaptation to work on Rhino6. So if you can advice on improvements for Holomark3 then I will gladly implement them!
had no problem running it either with the previous driver. I ran it three times without a problem before updating to the new AMD driver. once a year they bring a big driver update where they introduce new features - it is this “big” update taht I did and I guess that has something to do with it.
maybe holomark just reveals a lot of undiscovered rhino bug 
I don’t think it is so much your code as something in Rhino 
I’ll try investigate, log bugs where necessary.
After some investigation, and giving the necessary info to @Holo, I got an updated plug-in that now ran fine on my machine.
All 4 GPUs are nicely detected, currently only one functioning as display adapter, and that is the GTX 1060.

Yeah, thanks for the help Nathan!
I posted a new installer in post nr 2:
The uninstaller of the HM2 displaymodes are not functional just yet, but I’ll post a new update when it’w up and running.
One thing to think of for Holomark3 is to automatically run the whole test suite several times.
I just reran HolomMark2_V6 and there is a whopping 2k difference in CPU - something that can already be seen between the first four runs. Also the FPS results fluctuate somewhat.
Running the whole test suite several (3-5) times, with some ‘cooldown’ period between the sets, say 10 seconds, then averaging those results, may give a better idea of the performance.
Naturally it’d be best to have users run HoloMark without any other programs running, but even so…

I also saw quite high cpu score differences each run
I am a bit confused by the GPU scores. they suggest that a GTX1060 (GPU scores: 115010) and Pro-WX9100 (GPU scores: 116350) performe about equal. Is that result in any way representative for the actual viewport performance? I would expect a 1700€ workstation card to perform much better than a 300€ midrange gaming card.
I’m also interested in this cause I was thinking about getting something like a WX4100 or WX5100 used from ebay. But if the scores are anywhere near the actual viewport experience, then I’d probably just keep my GTX1060.
