@ahmad13610 like i posted in the forum i will never be going with ryzen thank you for input i just wanted to the the difference between the 2 CPU'S that i picked Thank you so much for you input

im 2 days over the return window i went to micro center and paid $285 after tax @Spotty

it is the geforce gtx 1060 6 gb armor ocv1 https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GTX-1060-ARMOR-OCV1/dp/B01L9VB642 $338.80·Amazon.comFree shipping $469.00·Newegg.comFree shipping $155.00·eBayUsed, free shipping, no tax $299.52·Grooves-Inc.comFree shipping, no tax $388.23·ComputerCity i have only been using the gpu for 1 month and still have the receit as well as all the items are under warranty so they could swap it out for a brand new cpu gpu and mother board @Spotty

Makes complete sense essentially what I want to do is get the rtx 2080 or maybe even a 2070 paired with the i7 8700k or they i9 8700k my question between the difference of these to CPU'S is the i7 has 6 cores and 12 threads and then i9 has 8 cores 8 threads.would more thread be better for streaming and not bottle necking or more cores and equal thread's my budget is around 700$ atm and i want to sell my graphics card for around 230 and then the cpu for 150-200 and the mother board for 100 to be able to purchase my gpu cpu and mother board so in total i would be spending around 1200/1300$ @Spotty since prices are for cpu and mother boards are at it's low and since newer graphics cards will be coming out do you think that sticking with the 1060 after upgrading the mother board and the cpu would help out with my bottleneck and my stream untill I am able to get my hands on a 2070 or 2080 ? i just am in a pickle in between picking which parts i should swap first eventually they will all be done so in which order would be the most reasonable besides purchasing all at one go

@Spotty Much Appreciated I will be going towards the route of upgrading the GPU and waiting till July to do . Thank you so much for your quick reply in regards to one last question when running games my CPU while streaming sits around 80 percent usage and then will jump to 100 percent on high demanding situation do you believe upgrading the GPU will relieve less stress on my CPU ?

@SpottyThank you for tagging along in this forum i am currently using nvidia Gerforce Experience for streaming i was curious about intel Core i7-8700K comes with 6 core 12 threads VS the I9- 9700K Which comes with 8 cores 8 threads is the difference noticeable with a higher thread count or equal cores and threads for streaming ? or should I go for a 2080 graphics card or wait like i was planning to till July When deciding either a new mother board / cpu or better gpu which would you recommend being more beneficial for the greatest increase in overall performance if i leave my i5-7600 with upgrading my gpu im concerned the CPU wont be enough for pairing with the graphics card

Thank you for that edit and the input i understand the 9700k has higher clock speeds but lacks threads the i7 8700k has 6 core 12 threads and then 9700k has 8 cores 8 threads would uping the thread count have a better performance , smoother stream ? @normpearii

I am well aware that i will be using the encoding on the gpu which is why im waiting till july for the cpu and would be waiting for the 2080 ti or some other competator to come out with something new and possibly drop down the price as for the 8700k and the 9700k which would be better for handling the loads i appreciate the input as well as when i try obs or stream elements i get worse performance and it struggles more @normpearii

ASUS Prime Z370-A II (Intel 9th Gen) as for the CPU I no you all are going to be recommending AMD But i already spent 400$Christmas deal VS the 700$ Current MSRP on my g sync monitor this is where my question comes into play Intel Core i7-8700K comes with 6 core 12 threads VS the I9- 9700K Which comes with 8 cores 8 threads is the difference noticeable with a higher thread count or equal cores and threads for streaming ? I am aware that my graphics card is out dated but i will be intending to sell the parts in my current build to add to the budget for my GPU as well as waiting prices to go down to possibly get a 2080 ti i will be doing my purchase July this summer hopefully the best deal's will be around then The most demanding game that i play while streaming is Rainbow Six Siege and in loading screen's i get around 180FPS with streaming on and while in intensive situation dip in the 50's but usually stay around the high 80's if i am not streaming i easily get 200FPS All Around with the low intense situations getting into the 180 If anyone has any recommendations other then AMD Please feel free to add your peace of mind it is greatly appreciated that you are taking the time out of the day or night to give input When streaming on twitch.tv/Tspec Which also gives acces to my instagram for quicker reply's not trying to advertise but show previous videos and what the quality looks like. my internet provider is 300MB'S unlimited download and 32 mbs upload and is smooth at 1080p , 60 FPS there is some in game stuttering when swapping to other games partially due to the factor that there are no launch options for disabling v-sync Also I am not currently Running OBS, Or Stream Elements because it is a little more demanding on the system and run Ge force Experience for a smoother EXP
