For me, it is the Void Pro Wireless dongle that seems to cause the high CPU. Unplug just that, CPU drops back down to 5-8%. Tempted to switch back to an old version of CUE. 

 

EDIT - a thread on Reddit said to disable RGB on the headset. Fixed the CPU issue for me.

The latest version seems to have fixed my issues so maybe try that if you haven't already
