Dual Xeon E5-2699V3 / 2.3 GHz Not Enough for Video Encoding?

[BDubbers]

The primary purpose of my rig is the editing and encoding / transcoding of video files. In essence when my machine is exporting for an hour I am losing money.

When exporting an MP4 source file to an MP4 destination file (which in essence should not be a change) from Adobe Premiere CC I am receiving terrible performance.

A 45 minute 1080P Video will take 40 minutes to export. Yet the system seems to be barely in use. Any help would be appreciated. If anyone needs additional data / test please tell me.

System specs:
CPU: 2 x Xeon E5-2699V3 / 2.3 GHz
Motherboard: SuperMicro X10DRI
Memory: 2 x Crucial Ballistix Sport 32GB Kit (8GBx4) DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200) (32GB per CPU total 64GB)

HardDrives:
OS / Program Files (C: SAMSUNG 850 PRO SERIES 512GB SSD
Source Video Files (D): WD BLACK 4TB SATA 6GB/S 7.2K 3.5IN
Destination Output (V): WD BLACK 4TB SATA 6GB/S 7.2K 3.5IN

Video Card:
Gigabyte GTX 980

Machine State:
Machine has a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. Installed is just the Adobe CC Suite, IE 11 and the Latest GPU drivers from Nvidia.

During the export Hardware Monitor shows the following:

The machine is practically not doing anything. Any guidance would be soooooo welcome. As said previously if there is another test I should perform to help determine the issue please tell me.

Assuming that Premier CS6 is relatively the same as CC, go into edit>preferences>memory and allocate more ram to premier (meaning dragging the ram reserved for other apps all the way down or to desired spot)

Thank you for taking the time to respond, unfortunately the memory seems to be set to the max with 57.9GB allocated to premiere with same results.

Also attempt to set the priority higher than usual. Open task manager, go to your processes, find Premiere, right click and go to set priority to realtime, and press change priority when prompted.

Thanks I attempted setting it to realtime. The system said I could not do that and set the priority to high. Speed seems to be the same.

Hi. Even more cool option 2xE5-2699v3 128 GB DDR4, 6 SSD in RAID 0 on Adaptec 71605Q "IN DATA", SSD for scrach disk, SSD for out data 2xGTX Titan Z faced the same problem at me.
I conducted comprehensive investigations and I found out that a problem in Adobe MERCURY engine. The matter is that it doesn't process more than 40 streams. And in our case of streams 72. Partially the problem can be solved with the help of switching off of HT of hyper trading in BIOS, it gives productivity gain. The second bottleneck is the low clock frequency of cores, and SSE expansions directly depend on this frequency therefore today E5-2687W has big real productivity in the Adobe programs. It is a problem first of all of developers of the Adobe company and only they can correct.

Yeah, the priority has nothing to do with it.

In Task Manager, right click on the columns at the top and go to "Select Columns". Then, scroll down the list and check the box labelled "Threads". Then, post a screenshot of Task Manager with that column showing while it is exporting a video.
