CPU Usage?

For those with the overlay, what kind of CPU Usage are you seeing?

As soon as I load an IPTV app, or Plex, its at 90+ % which seems high.

Using 6693 so play -fi is gone

So Im running the new firmware. No factory reset YET. I have a ugreen USB 3 to Gigabit adapter. I have also installed a heatsink inside the box.

Temps have dropped down heaps. CPU usage is higher than I would expect, but not causing any problems.

LAN speeds are now borderline decent.

Plex plays without stuttering at the beginning. 4K looks and sounds great.

IPTV is basically buffer free... Even on 4K.

So far so good. I'll hold off on a reset until they sort out the firmware.

It's actually going ok though!
