Update
Blue Iris to version 5.6.x.x or greater and implement sub streams. Your CPU should drop to around 15%, or less, depending on the CPU in use. I run 22 cameras, 2MP, 4MP and 8MP, on a 12700K and BI CPU utilization is around 5%.
I'd also strongly suggest returning the Reolink for something more on the prosumer level than the consumer level. Reolink is actually compatible with Reolink according to their own advertising. They play far too many games with their firmware for their cameras to be truly reliable for anything other than casual daytime observation devices. A few quick guides for you -
Disclaimer - These sizes are what the manufacturers advertise and may, or may not, be the true size of the sensor in the camera.
1/3" = .333" Great for 720P
1/2.8" = .357" (think a .38 caliber bullet) Great for 2MP
1/1.8" = .555" (bigger than a .50 caliber bullet or ball) Great for 4MP
1/1.2" = .833" (bigger than a 20mm chain gun round) Great for 8MP
