So i wanna upgrade my pc, but im not sure if its gonna bottleneck or not.

 

I wanna upgrade to i7-7700k and a ASRock B365 Phantom Gaming 4. Also can you tell me, if the motherboard is bad, or is there any better motherboard for the same price.

I am mostly gonna play CS:GO and stream it at the same time.

 

Thanks.

the 7700k isn't compatible with B365 motherboards.

Not much point getting a k series on a locked board you cant overclock with. I mean the k series does have a mkz boost over the non k

 

EDIT: and as @Herman Mcpootis says, it's not supporter (missed that one)

Not really, I paid pretty much no attention to the 8 series generations of hardware.

the 7700k isn't worth getting nowadays, a 3600 + B450 board would be a better choice.
