ryzen 3600 vs 2700x

[ProMeth]

Here's my question What would be the best system for Gaming+Streaming??? 

R5 3600 + 2070Super

R7 2700x + 2070Super

And What encoder should I use Nvenc or H264??

The R5 3600 and then use NVENC, your gaming performance will be higher at small cost of stream quality which shouldn't matter unless you literally live from streaming and need the best quality possible.

From my experiences, 3600 does x264 Fast 1080p60 just fine with heavy-ish games.

I had the same question except for the 'gaming' bit. While I do intend on gaming on my system in the future, currently I am testing algorithms for machine learning. Should I get the 2700X (which has the greater number of cores, but lesser speed) or the 3600 (which has fewer number of cores but higher speed)?

Personally I'd grab the 2700 for $166

At least according to Passmark, you should get more out of the 3600 for both single and multi threaded applications than the 2700X. I'm also given to understand you can generally set them up to OC up to 4.2Ghz all cores for more performance on multithread applications.
