Kodi seems to use MORE CPU power, the fan runs louder and gets more frames but it's still not managing to decode in real time. Kodi seems to be making better use of the system's resources but the inefficiency remains. VLC and MPC-HC run LAPS around Kodi when playing the same clip. Meanwhile I transcoded that clip to h.264 since I had no 4K 60fps h.264 content for stress testing. With h.264 Kodi, VLC, and MPC-HC seem to decode roughly in par. I'll whip up an OpenELEC USB as requested and test that out tomorrow.

Threading wise it works as we intended it.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
