Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming at 1080/1440p, streaming, video editing 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

 

Which gives me more bang for my buck a ryzen 5 3600 or a Intel i-5 11400

which would i be recommended to get in my budget pc

The 11400 is superior to the 3600.

Ryzen 5 3600 is better most of the time. Has a better upgrade path too.
Edit: I was wrong, Ryzen does have a really good upgrade path though.

how?

[AMD A10-9600P]

Go for the 11400, it competes with the 5600, not the 3600. Between the 3600 and 11400, again, I'd go for the i5-11400

From benchmarks i've seen, Ryzen 5 3600 is better for the price.

the 11400 is overall about 10% faster.|
i rest my case

11400 is faster and often cheaper. If you have a GPU, go for the 11400F instead, it will save you about €40. Only difference is that it has no iGPU.

Big asterisk:

 

*FASTER WITH proper ram and a B560/Z490/Z590 motherboard. Back when the 10400 was being compared to the 3600 it lost because of the 2666MHz ram speed. The 11400 is near identical and requires an  appropriate motherboard to be faster.

 

That being said, a cheap B560 motherboard is still gonna leave the price difference between the i5 and the ryzen 5 in intel's favor. I definitely don't recommend a B460 motherboard and especially not an H410/510.

Fasauceome drove the nail on this one. 
My two cents would be the 11400K will produce more heat and it's stock heat sink is just slightly better than crap. If you think heat is going to be a concern and you're sticking with stock cooling, you might wanna consider the Ryzen. Otherwise, the 11400 with goo ram is a faster chip.

Big emphasis on this.  The B560 chipset is an absolute godawful mess.

 

 

Massive caveat emptor for B560 chipset boards, even with an 11400.
