Hey guys, I'm using a 3700X with Wraith Prism cooler. I use it for regular gaming & movie encoding. This is my first build by myself after 8 years. I clearly don't have any idea about CPU Power & Overclocking. So when I play games my CPU doesn't go above 77C after hours of gaming (Max settings ofc). But when I encode something on Handbrake using the highest quality the temperature gets between 80-83C @100% usage all cores. So what I want is , is there any way to decrease the temp & increase performance a bit? I tried to mess with the fan curve in BIOS but I couldn't save it (i'm using an MSI X570 motherboard). Also can you check if my CPU power consumption & stuffs are okay or not in the screenshots? Are they over powered or any issue i mean...

Everything seems fine to me. The PBO cut for the Ryzen 3000 appears to be around 85°C at most. Unless you're planning a manual overclock—which I don't suggest for Zen 2—limiting temperatures won't improve performance.
