Hey guys! I figured this was related to my CPU so I'd ask it in this part of the forum.
I have a A10-7850k for my HTPC. I do not have an aftermarket cooler YET.
Basically what I'm doing is getting movies into MKV files and transcoding them to MP4 so that I can use them with Plex Media Server and so that my system does not need to transcode on the fly.
My question is as follows: Is there a such thing as too much transcoding?
I know that transcoding uses as much of the CPU as possible, but since I'm new at this I want to make sure I don't over do it and overuse my CPU.
Thank you for your responses.
Best Regards!
