CPUmaxer Tool

Hardware components keep getting better and better, but so do video games, and specialized applications. CPU, Memory, and GPU can all be stress tested with dedicated programs to see how well they fair against pressure. In this regard, CPUmaxer Tool puts pressure on your processor so you can test alerts, and various other scenarios.

Can be used on the go

First of all, the application requires no installation in order to function, which means you can easily carry it around on a thumb drive, and even use on different computers. What’s more, this can be done without worrying that the target PC gets affected, because registries are not modified during runtime. On the other hand, you need to check whether or not .NET Framework is installed on the PC you run it on.
Effort on your behalf, at least when it comes to the application’s set of features, is minimum. This is because the core function is to enable you to keep the CPU under heavy loads, so you can test other third-party applications, games, features, or other kind of scenarios in which the CPU is a key resource.

Easily select cores to keep busy

The main window shows CPU related details, such as CPU sockets, cores, logical CPUs, manufacturer, name, description, as well as a real-time updating field which shows load percentage of the CPU.
It’s best to keep an eye on this value, or use a CPU monitor, because keeping the processor under heavy pressure for too long can damage it. All your effort in applying pressure narrows down to writing the number of CPU cores to keep busy. Hitting apply instantly forces the processor to run harder, and doesn’t stop until you close the application, or switch the value back to zero.

To sum it up

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that CPUmaxer Tool is a neat testing utility designed to help keep the CPU busy to check how other features and programs fair with limited processing speed. Although the visual design might not make it win an award, it’s easy to use, deserving at least a try.
