This is my current version of the build, it's mainly focused on streaming, recording (videogames like CS:GO League of Legends, BUT also Arma 3 or The Witcher) and video editing. My question is, what's the best choice of CPU and also if the power supply is powerful enough to supply the whole build.

 

Thank you

the psu is fine and a lot of people will probably be mentioning ryzen due to your work load

Would a ryzen system be better for streaming etc... ? It's just that I feel more comfortable with an Intel CPU, but if it's better I might consider switch to Ryzen.

i haven't personally tried it but from some videos it seems like its better for streaming plus game due to the increased core count though hopefully some one who owns ryzen or ryzen and intel can comment on this
