Painfully slow encoding with i7 970

Just picked up a new cpu from the MM and am getting some terrible encoding performance out of it.

Settings in Handbrake, are constant 10,000kbps with audio passthru and same resolution as the original (mkv made from the bluray disc)

Do I have some settings wrong? it doesn't even seem to using 100% cpu, infact only about 50% on each core is getting involved!
 
It's a Samsung F3 which is about a year old, it should be fine.
I think you may be right with the 2 pass encoding theory, on 1 pass it goes at about 50fps, that extra pass really gives it a hit! Is it even worth it?
