For the record my i9-7900X@4.5G can play those Elecard UHD clips in realtime with libaom through LAV Filters (achieves ~33 fps on the 22mbit clip, the clip is 25 fps). Considering the state of the multi-threading in libaom, the 10 cores aren't really doing me any good, so it must be the relatively high clock I have it running at, and full AVX2.

Judging by these results, and the limited number of threads it uses now, with proper threading and more optimizations, I have no doubt that such clips would run fine on 2018/19 mainstream CPUs (ie. decently clocked quadcores with AVX2 and above), once the decoders are fully done. Of course the highest clip they had was 22mbit only, but considering AV1 is more likely to become a web format then a optical disc format, extremely high bitrates are probably going to remain very rare.
