Posted February 19, 2017 Hello, So I built my PC back in 2015 and had a few parts added until now. BUT My I5 4670K on the LGA 1150 is no longer able to have an upgrade! SO My specs are as follows, (MB) Z97 Gaming 3, Zotac GTX 1070 AMP Extreme, HyperX Ram 1899mhz, Thermaltake water 3.0 360, Power supply HX850I Platinum Corsair, Kingston SSD and a HDD, case is Corsair 750D, I might have missed a few things! This PC was built by myself and gets 160+ FPS in most games (1080P MAXED) But when I look at streaming AHAAHHAA just no, I was looking at 80% CPU usage and in CSGO 95% CPU usage. I am looking to have a pc CPU able to stream and play game's mostly CS:GO at 600 FPS not the 200-300 I get now thanks to my CPU. I have £1,650 to get a new motherboard, CPU, GPU and ram, all my other parts are perfectly fine since only just bought and that saves me 600+ on top for no reason. PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT IF YOU are thinking about saying about the I7 4790K or about a Skylake £300 CPU, they are not worth it, imo at this rate, I would like to get this done by September, so if you know of a CPU that will trump all other CPU's i can wait since my PC works and is still a godly PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 19, 2017 Wait a month until Ryzen releases. You may end up being able to get a 6 or 8 core CPU for around £400. Honestly though, do you really need a new GPU? A 1070 is pretty powerful, so the only upgrade I could think of would be eventually a 1080 ti or AMD equivalent but that might cost £700-800.

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Posted February 19, 2017 Yeah to do streaming well you want lots of cores so you would be better off waiting for ryzen to come out and then make a decision on either going with Ryzen or some sort of 6 core i7.
