Focus on the BIOS section to verify everything functions properly. Check that CPU RAM and MMO are correctly recognized. Ensure no issues arise after powering down, which should confirm they’re working without thermal paste concerns. This process is generally safe if done correctly.

Ordered a bit of thermal paste. Better safe than sorry when it comes to CPU health.

Yes, it's possible, but capability doesn't guarantee it should be done. Adding a small amount of paste might not affect the BIOS settings you're seeking, so why risk it? I wouldn't recommend it myself, and definitely don't waste time just browsing in the BIOS. Good luck and stay safe.

I’d stop after what it takes for the machine to send its status to the BIOS. I believe the device might crash before more than a couple of minutes.

Applied some thermal paste and really dislike that noisy AMD stock cooler for AM4.

You can, there's hardly any risk. It's definitely not optimal though so I wouldn't let it running for long if unnecessary.
