You will definitely be more than good with this setup. You will be near the very top level of performance out there for games (minus the crazies with quad SLI 1080 Ti's/Titans and extreme series CPUs, lol)

May i ask if you have any particular reason for choosing intel build over Ryzen? Overall your config looks good enough to run most of the present game at Ultra settings.

Go for Intel build if you plan on using your PC for solely gaming, buy Ryzen if you plan on gaming + streaming or for workstation purposes.

so how will my set up preform with streaming ?

That's more than fine. LTT did a video basically proving that from the slowest DDR4 RAM to the fastest, there is only like a 1-2 FPS difference across the board. The main benefit is the amount of RAM you have, and no game uses anywhere near 16GB of RAM, yet. I've seen up to about 10-11 GB max used on my system with some heavily modded games.

More than fine. Streaming relies more on the multitasking of your CPU then anything, and with your CPU, there shouldn't be any issues.
