What is your budget/country for your new PC?

Does 4k streaming mean game streaming to youtube or twitch? Or Netflix/Amazon Prime? Because 4k video streaming really isn't worth it overall.

There's no major upgrade for your CPU for video streaming, and you can't really buy GPUs right now, so just keep waiting on that front.

 

Would suggest you just keep saving, or if you want a more powerful CPU get a Ryzen 7 2600 and X470 board on April 19th.
