Hi everyone!

I currently have a Desktop that I built a year ago and am looking to upgrade it since I seem to be having some problems from time to time.

I mainly want to use it for streaming games such as League of Legends, Valorant, Dead By Daylight, minecrat and others if it can handle it.

Currently I can't stream Valorant even with the lowest graphics and resolution or else OBS, Valorant and discord crashes and I get a notice that I don't have enough memory. 

I juste bought 2 other 8Go RAM so shortly I'll have 32Go of RAM instead of 16, but that's beside the point.

I would like to know what you guys would recommend I upgrade next.

Here's my list of parts, thanks for your help, super appreciate it.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3300X

Motherboard: ASRock B450M Pro4-F

RAM: 2 sticks of G.Skill 8192 MB (DDR4-2137)

GPU: Radeon RX 580 Series (Polaris 20 XT)

Display 1: ASUS VP228 (AUS22A1)

Display 2: CB272U (ACR081D)

4 cores is not enough for streaming while playing games, the only thing lowering graphics settings would do is lighten the load on your gpu which is not the bottleneck. I would consider a 3700x or a 5800x if your board supports it and you have the budget for it.
