Streaming is cpu heavy so you want more cores, also what graphics card are you thinking of? You listed the same thing

If you're editing an Nvidia GPU might be better for CUDA. I'd say 1060 instead.

 

For streaming you should probably consider getting a 1600.

STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM POWERCOLOR THANKS 

Ok why caps? They have bad customer support and their card runs really hot. I have the exact same card but for RX 480 4GB so I can warn you

For your set of programs it's more cpu intensive. Hitfilms uses as many cores as you can throw at it link  and Blender likes cuda more link If you are doing serious recording/streaming/editting if you can wait a bit more and save up, a 1060 and ryzen 1600 would be a good combo

No problem but consider the 1600 6 core though, streaming and editing will benefit from it alot.

Will do it's just it's kinda expensive
