Your i7-9700K is base frequency/turbo frequency of 3.6/4.9 GHz. It can sustain an all-core turbo of 4.6 GHz. Handbrake is most likely running multiple cores at high turbo frequencies. Without some kind of constraints, there's no doubt you will exceed what the 200W LPS can deliver. The 95W TDP is what's required to run 8 cores at the base frequency of 3.6 GHz. You can easily double that at all-core turbo. Your motherboard probably isn't contributing much to the load since you don't have a video card, so maybe something like 35W. Even if you power the motherboard with your Seasonic, and just use the HDPLEX gear to power the CPU, I think you may run into the same problem.
