    Does Burnin bypass processor pstates?

    Do any of the CPU tests in BurnIn ignore, disable or otherwise bypass processor pstates or other thermal safeties?

    During the execution of the tests, we don't touch anything. So if the CPU gets hot, then it may slow itself down, or shut itself down. This should only happen in situations like when the fan fails, or the heat sink is not correctly connected.
