Which unit to buy RN628X vs RN528X & RR4312X ?

If you're wanting to do real-time transcoding you should go with the RN628X. It depends on various factors about the video how well it would work.
If just needing to transcode for e.g. syncing to a tablet (a Plex Pass feature) then it taking longer is not as big an issue.If you just need to stream (not transcode) then it shouldn't matter which you go with.
is the RN528X CPU/RAM Fast enough for 4K HD Encoding H.264 /Streaming PLEX - or will it just take longer
