I think I may get the ryzen 2600 (150 euros) or the ryzen 7 1700 (150 euros) both have similar prices. This will be paired with a rtx 2060 or gtx 1070 not sure yet. What would you recommend? I am willing to spend a bit more for something that is better of course, and I do know that the new 7nm chips are coming out soon so I can expect price drops i imagine. My computer is going to be used for streaming/gaming, and machine learning. Would an intel chip be more beneficial to me for machine learning?

The 1700 will help you a lot in streaming, and should be roughly the same in gaming. Whether it'll be better for machine learning mostly depends on if that program is multi-threaded or not. It likely is, and in that case the R7 1700 would also be better there.

 

Wait for Zen 2 7nm to come out. It's a good idea.

For deep learning, you'll want to be using the GPU anyway, not the CPU.

As you can see, 5 CPU nodes are completely dominated by 1 GPU node.
