Overheating when using Handbrake
So my cpu runs about 100F give or take 10 degrees.
I noticed the other day, converting a few ISO files to m4p
my temp was 200-220F - quite scary!
I recently replaced the cpu fan and thermal paste....
should I not use handbrake?
or is that normal?
Thanks

Re: Overheating when using Handbrake
It's normal as encoding demand high processing capability. You should be fine as long as cpu fan works normally and environmental ventilation is good.

Re: Overheating when using Handbrake
That's 93-104 for those of us who use Celcius 
While it is normal for handbrake, as with all encoding, uses a lot of resources that temp may be a little high although I'm not au fait with laptops and encoding any more
