Start the CPU Stress Test at maximum load and wait 30-60 seconds.

So, to run a CPU stability test you have to: The purpose of a processor stability test is to determine how smoothly the CPU works, even if it is under high load. Thus, FPS is a good indicator while running a CPU stability test. However, if the frame rate drops below 30 FPS, it means that something is wrong (for example, the system cannot keep up with the current workload).

As a rule, in most cases, browsers render frames at a speed of 60 FPS (although sometimes a slightly lower speed may be acceptable).

The number of frames per second (abbreviated as FPS) indicates how fast your browser is able to render new frames. As you might have guessed, the number of points directly depends on the speed and the test duration. The number of score points indicates how many hashes were computed during the test. Thus, more power and threads will provide higher speed and CPU load (for example, 50% power + 10 threads will result in a 500% load). Since the power and the number of threads almost proportionally affect the speed, a 100% power + 1 thread will give the same speed as 50% power + 2 threads, or 25% power + 4 threads. The power indicates how much CPU time can be used by one thread (for example, 100% power means full speed without time idle). Multi-core CPUs cope better with the multithreading, this is why in such cases modern processors work faster and get better results. Thus, more threads lead to a higher speed, but at the same time to a higher load.

The number of threads determines the number of simultaneous operations for computing hashes. However, you need to remember that for maximum speed you need to use the full power of the CPU (that is, specify as many threads and power as possible). Obviously, a more powerful processor develops a higher speed. The speed measures how fast the processor is, and is measured in the number of hash operations per second. Given that not all processors and devices withstand high loads, it is strongly recommended to gradually increase indicator values.
