Method for comparing CPU performance metrics prior and post-testing
Method for comparing CPU performance metrics prior and post-testing
I recommend testing the thermal performance and voltage stability before and after installing the contact frame. Use a calibrated thermal camera or infrared thermometer to capture temperature changes across the CPU and GPU. For voltage, monitor with a multimeter under load to ensure stable voltages. Compare metrics like CPU core temps, GPU temperatures, voltage regulation, and power draw. Running benchmark tests such as AIDA64 can still be useful for stress analysis, but focus on thermal and electrical consistency rather than just performance gains.
