That's strange as I can play a 2160p30 VP9 YouTube video at 47fps (therefore has an effective bitrate of 28Mbps) in MPC-HC v1.8.3 x64 on my Xeon x3470 which is basically just a 1st gen i7, so surely a 6th gen i7 should have no issue with 60fps 4k VP9 let alone 24fps.

...oh, that might be the problem.
If you play the exact same VP9 video stream in MPC-HC then it should be a total cakewalk for your 6700k; I believe this is because Chrome uses the libvpx decoder while MPC-HC and LAVfilters uses ffvp9.
It's my impression that Firefox also utilizes ffvp9, so you may be able to alternatively use that instead of Chrome in order to get performance similar to what is seen with MPC-HC/LAVfilters.
