Can I run my laptop at 100% CPU for 5 days continuously?

[RanchTheHay005]

I have an asus notebook powered by an 8th gen i5-8265U
I am trying to do a deepfake using deepface lab....And after watching a lot of tutorials I figured out that the iter should be more than 100000 in order to get a decent deepfake while training the model

 

I ran the training session overnight (8 hours) and I have managed to get an iter of 10000....(GPU based training seems to have a lot of issues...like the training stopping randomly and is slower than the training done by the CPU)

 

The issue is my laptop is running at 95C the whole time....So is it safe to run this laptop continuously at 100% CPU for 5 days straight?

 

I tried my best to keep it cool....but it does not seem to reduce the temps

Go in power management and force the CPU to maximum 75-80% of maximum frequency, same for gpu ... use msi afterburner or whatever works to lower the clocks and power by a few percent ... that way you'll have < 90c temperature but take you half a day extra or something like that.

 

Also, AWS Free Tier  has 750 hours per month of server time for FREE.... but the instances are relatively low power (2 cores, 1-2 GB of ram)

Should be unless they cheaped the hell out on the components surrounding the CPU (the CPU itself will be fine). My 2015 MacBook Pro runs 99C under any decent load and it's been kicking for 7 years. Most other laptops seem to run similar temps and I haven't seen issues with them either, be it later MBPs, Airs, or HP laptops.

Should be fine but I'd at the very least be putting it on a cooling pad.

Repaste then lock the freq + undervolt, you are fine upto 100c

 

With locked freq you can just set static volt, use stock volt at the speed you choose as a reference then try -100mv first then keep going lower till crash, no dangers of static volt unless you go setting 2v for literally no reason, same for cache but usually cache can run ~50mv below core though youll need to do your own experimentation for this kind of stuff

Ohh will try the server part

 

I have tried everything including undervolting....did not seem to help....no GPU tweaking software seems to work on my GPU

Yup I have already done that

Ah ok then....I assume this laptop is not cheaped out....my old dell just died in 4 years with just regular usage leading me to this doubt

 

thank you!

Sure...I have one...and im using it
