2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

[spectatorx]

Yesterday i was encoding a video and out of curiosity checked cpu's temperatures while doing so. I'm running this cpu without overclock and with stock wraith prism cooler xfr&pbo enabled.

Encoding in handbrake utilizes all cores and threads at 100% which is normal and expected but one thing i didn't expect is when i launched hwinfo and took a look at cpu's tctl i saw 95 degrees. That was the first time i saw such high temperature on this cpu. I think it is related to 100% utilization on all cores and threads as for example while gaming it doesn't reach more than 70 degrees.

Anyone else having similar observations?

Well, cpu cooler is waaay more quiet than my gpu, imo it is very silent as even under heavy load i do not hear it.
No, i do not think i have any extra sensors in case. Case is some basic crap, i keep it with a side opened.

Well, at 100% fan speed i would probably hear it. I keep it on stock and never heard it at all, even at full load of cpu wraith prism's fan is really silent. The only fan i hear in my pc is on gpu while gaming. On cpu fan definitely never goes to 100% of its speed.

It became a bit louder on that load but i would call it slightly audible, definitely nothing even close to loud or annoying.

My head is in range 0,5-1m from case.

I'm not worried in long term as such load i'm getting only while video encoding and this is not something i do few times per day but more like once per few days or even more rare and with power of this cpu encoding doesn't take long.

Asrock x470 taichi ultimate here and this mobo by default has offset set to -100mV.

So here you have your first one, you are welcome.

Also i took a look now into fan settings in bios and there are 4 or 5 profiles. I'm running default one which is named "standard", for a moment i enabled "performance mode" and this one even while in bios already was noticeably audible to say the least. I will keep it on standard.

What sort of clock speeds are you seeing, the stock prism cooler is very good but you have to remember many people use encoding with handbrake as a stress tester.
it will run the CPU at 100% for a prolonged period of time, you should invest in a tower cooler of some sort.

for the here and now set the fan profile to turbo in bois this will set the fan to 15% high rpm's

I just checked and during encoding in handbrake hwinfo shows max cpu clock was at 4300MHz on three out of eight available cores, all other cores were topping 4275MHz.

When I'm benchmarking something in some games afterburner's osd shows sometimes clock jumping up to 4350MHz on almost all cores and threads.

Is PBO enabled?

Take a look at starting post again. Seriously...

Really? I am trying to understand what you are getting at and asking a few questions regarding your setup. I did miss the bit about XFR and PBO but that doesn't require the snarky reply.

PBO is based on several factors and its behaviour will exhibit fluctuations that you have observed.

Really, i'm providing details in initial posts to avoid redundant questions so seeing such question after providing details is disappointing, don't you think so? how would YOU feel in such situation?

I will rephrase what i wrote in my first post of this thread:
Usually temps on gaming load are somewhere around 60-70 degrees, in handbrake where cpu is fully utilized on all cores and threads i see 95(tctl)/85(tdie) degrees i was not shocked, not worried just wanted an info from other 2700x users if they have similar observations. I do not see this as a problem because i understand difference on load and its influence on generated heat.

so... basically xfr&pbo are doing there job and overclocking the snot out of your CPU. this is good.

your options are, get a bigger cooler OR disable xfr&pbo
you could also explore the under volt options talked about above(i have never done this) but less Vcore = less heat.

I would go with the better cooler option and also try the under volt.
you dont need a massive and silly priced cooler to keep ryzen in check, the problem the included cooler as its top down and there just not the best.
i would think something as cheap as a hyper 212 would do a better job, so you option on cooling really are open to anything

To be honest i have a cooler from am3 platform with adapter to am4: silentiumpc fera 2 lying around but decided to keep wraith prism strictly because of its looks. I'm not fan of rgb but this one looks exceptionally good, imo.
