I'm not doing anything special, I'm just using vanilla 14.2 on Windows with an i7 3770K. I'm running the Sintel 4K encode, 4096x1744 @ 24fps. I can even disable one of the four cores for 4K HEVC, however two is insufficient. I keep it at two since I have no real 4K HEVC content to view. I don't have any 60fps content to test but I imagine that'd probably be too much for the 3770K... But I'm not really worried about 60fps.

Ah - I only have 59.94p and 50p content as that is what the BBC broadcast during their UHD DVB-T2 tests last summer. I imagine 24p would be OK on my i7-2600K - but I don't have any 2160/23.976p HEVC/H265 stuff to test with.

that's nice to know, though you have a vanilla 3570 which tdp is 77W - a bit high for a small mini-itx case.
