Hi there!
I was just wondering, can you run a CPU stress test, to reach its max clock speed, and work/game at the same time?

Well, the thing is, I wanna check if I can utilize my max CPU frequency while working. I'm a power user, and I prefer performance.
You probably "could"...in that nothing bad would happen.Hi there!

Why would you even do that?If you want to check if you cpu is stable just leave it in the stress test.Hi there!

...but I wouldn't trust the results of the CPU stress test and I really don't see any reason why you WOULD do this.
I'm a power user.. I had tried to overclock my CPU, only to discover that it's locked. So I just wondered if I can use my max clock speed while working.Why would you even do that?If you want to check if you cpu is stable just leave it in the stress test.
Well you can set it manually in the bios for example ryzen 3600 max boost is 4.2ghz you can set 4.2 in the bios and play with the voltage but prepare yourself for higher temp and maybe not really stable.The cpu itself will use it's full speed if needed if not it will lower it's speed to maintain a lower temps so i recommend leaving it at defaultWell, the thing is, I wanna check if I can utilize my max CPU frequency while working.

Actually I had tried that. I have a pretty old CPU- an Intel Core i5 3317U@1.7Ghz, so it IS pretty slow when I run modern applications. I can't find an Intel speed step tab in my UEFI, neither do I know how to overclock it. I'm too scared if I'll mess up and blow it up or something, so I thought this would be a better option.Well you can set it manually in the bios for example ryzen 3600 max boost is 4.2ghz you can set 4.2 in the bios and play with the voltage but prepare yourself for higher temp and maybe not really stable.The cpu itself will use it's full speed if needed if not it will lower it's speed to maintain a lower temps so i recommend leaving it at default
This sounds like a laptop, in which case said options are usually not available.Actually I had tried that.

No it's not acually you will get less performance this way.Because your cpu is focusing on 2 application instead of one and your cpu looks like a labtop cpu so it will overheat if you did that which will cause the cpu to lower it's speedActually I had tried that.

Mate you look like you're new to this so i recommend you to leave everything stock tbh it's just a headache i had a labtop like you and i ruined because i was missing with it's cpu clocks i lacked knowledge back then so please don't make the same mistake.Hi there!

Yea actually, it is a laptopThis sounds like a laptop, in which case said options are usually not available.
Well, I tried this, and it has been going well for about an hour.. haven't measured the temp, but its roughly the same as when I normally use it..No it's not acually you will get less performance this way.Because your cpu is focusing on 2 application instead of one and your cpu looks like a labtop cpu so it will overheat if you did that which will cause the cpu to lower it's speed
Oh ok, thank you for you timeMate you look like you're new to this so i recommend you to leave everything stock tbh it's just a headache i had a labtop like you and i ruined because i was missing with it's cpu clocks i lacked knowledge back then so please don't make the same mistake.
Cheers!
