So im kind of stuck on which CPU i should buy, I want to start streaming but my CPU isnt up to the task. (I have an i5 6600K) Im trying to decide between the i7 8700K and the i7 9700K so i want to get something that will last me a while because i dont have the money to upgrade every time a new generation of CPU's or GPU's come out. I know the 8700K has 6 cores and 12 threads with hyper threading and the 9700K has 8 cores and 8 threads without hyper threading and ive heard that streaming uses threads more than cores but im not 100% sure. I will be streaming and gaming off my desktop because i cant afford to buy a streaming pc. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks allot to anyone who anyone has any ideas ?
