Should I stress test my new cpu?

[Ejoyner13]

I just built a new PC and I was curious if I should run some sort of stress test on my cpu to see how my cooler handles temps. I haven't overclocked anything yet. Is there a program that you all recommend to run a quick stress test to see how I'm sitting? I am running an i7 7700k and my temps are the 25-30 idle

Thanks

You can do one as a stability test, but not as necessary if you're not overclocking. Just run it through Prime95.

Cinebench Will give you a cpu score you can compare with other users cpus. Prime 95 is good but be sure to use the 26 ver.

As mentioned above Cinebench R15 is good to be sure it's performing on par and Prime95 (v26.6) to be sure your cooler is sufficient.
