Processor Speed and diagnostic test

Hello. This is just a general question nothing is wrong with my computer. I am wanting to run diagnostic test and processor speed tests. What would be a good program for me to use to do this in general across all processors as I also help my friends with their laptop programs. I have found this one (have not installed as of yet) https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Software. I have used this site when comparing processors as they have nifty charts that compare processors against each other and have found no problem. I however have not been able to find a diagnostic tool. Currently I personally use AVG driver update to find drivers that are out of date and I go to the products website to download the driver. I don't exactly trust downloading from 3rd party applications, I just use the antivirus as an extra line of defense and I have all these other applications I can use with my subscription so took advantage of that. I know Windows Defender can do this which is what I use and may continue using with my friends laptops. The 3rd party applications will solely be downloaded to a flash drive as well for portability. Thanks!

    Hi Nasiecoon

    My name is Sarah Kong and I am an independent adviser that is here to try and help you with your issue.

    Normally the vendor of your PC has diagnostic tools in the BIOS.

    For example I have a Dell and when i boot into the BIOS there are hardware diagnostics tools i can run to make sure hardware is good.

    I used this awhile back and determined that my hard drive was faulty, replaced it and since then my Dell has been working great.

    Hope this helps.

    My laptop has an AMD processor. Would the intel one work with any processor or just Intel?
