5600x + hardware encoding on your 980ti would be the best option in term of FPS for these games

Budget (including currency): INR 20K-30K

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Apex Legends, CS:GO, PUBG (rarely)

Other details With the current market, I cannot upgrade my 980Ti any soon and I am willing to upgrade my old 2500K System.
On current system (2500K with 980TI) I can play the games but can't stream at all. (I play CS and Apex mostly).
I wish to stream on twitch, 1080p60 if possible on the same machine as I play.
Which CPU should I buy?
And Which encoding settings would be preferable?
Does hardware encoding on 980Ti good enough for 1080p60? Or would I have to use x264 software encoding?
Then, which CPU should I go with?

Pretty much as said hadrware encoding on the 980ti will do all the work. For pure gaming the 5600x is best right now.
