Ryzen 7 2700X Or i5 9600k?

Looking for a new CPU, will mainly use it for gaming. Some video editing, AutoCAD and Adobe Photoshop will probably be used sometimes. Which one do you recommend? I stream on YouTube sometimes and I've heard that the 2700X is more a workstation CPU. Give me your opinion :)

2700 non x, becouse it's way cheaper, will run just fine and the 2700x only has a higher turbo clock. if you want something heavier and your applications scale well, get a first gen treadripper for that money, not a skylake+++ I5 for editing.

Yeah sure if possible do one 2700 with a Micro-ATX if possible. DDR4 Included. Nothing more. ?

You can also make one with i5 9600k just to see the difference in price :)

if you don't game at 120+hz, just go with the 2700 (it's also a good fit with the 1070), the 9600k will hold you back in everything else at 6c6t

Well I haven't tried a quadro cuz they are hella expensive (At least the newer ones). For me the 1070 works very well. 

 

Edit: Quadro is meant for workstations. Not gaming.
