I would maybe change the Xeon to an i7 of some sotr, but that would mean you would have to change motherboards, RAM, and get the new CPU. I'm not actually sure Xeon's are for streaming, but I know they aren't amazing for gaming. Besides that I think your system is fine, unless you want to also bump up your graphics card, then you could probably get a 1080 for pretty cheap because of the dropping prices.

I should actually do some research on Xeons, brb
