CPU Speed Professional is a cool utility that allows you to test your CPU and view the real power that lies within your computer. If you want to compare your processor with a friend or coworker, just install this application and run the test.

The program has a simple to use interface and a slick design that resembles a speedometer. When you test the CPU, the program will run it through four different stages from a short warm up to full throttle when the processor load will reach maximum.

After the test you can submit your score to the developer's website and view the ranking of other users from all over the world. You can compare your CPU with other models and if you are thinking to upgrade your computer it a good source of information.

If you just purchased a new computer and you want to check the CPU model and speed this application can provide you with all the required information. It is compatible with all the Intel and AMD CPUs. From the first run you can view the processor's vendor, family, published speed and MMX or SSE support.

This application comes in handy for the users that want to overclock their CPUs, in order to measure the top speed after a change of settings. The values we obtained from running the test repeatedly varied a little so you might consider performing multiple tests before drawing a conclusion.
