Is there a reason why Handbrake is only using around 40% of the 3900X during an X265 encode?
And are the temps I am seeing with HW Monitor and CoreTemp correct? Seems kinda high at 70+ C with only 40% load on the processor, and the max was 88*C according to CoreTemp.
Is it maybe throttling due to temps. I told my friend that we may need to get an aftermarket cooler for his 3900X setup, either a Noctua Air cooler or Corsair AIO. He's going to decide in a day or so which one to get.
I ran the same test with the same settings on my 4790k and Handbrake uses over 90% of the CPU.
