As long as you are under 100C, you are ok. And, the processor can do so much more than just run stress tests.

i get what you're saying good sir but 100 is considered very risky

100C is the max, + or - a bit. What did you expect the stress test to do?

Just stop running stress tests and you will not have a problem.
