[SOLVED] 100% CPU usage while running VLC player to convert video

[XSR]

Hello,

Is it OK to run the Ryzen 3700X at 100% CPU for extended periods of time?

Define, extended periods.

So long as you have adequate case airflow and your CPU is being cooled to the point below thermal throttling or shutdown, you're in good hands. Also, I think you might want to run another app to convert your videos if you're curious how they affect your CPU and it's temps.
