Best solution, would recommend buying cpu cooler before overclocking the cpu in the future :)

I'd recommend xeon cuz it has hyperthreading which is good for streaming BUT skylake is more futureproof. Assuming the Xeon has a 30% boost from hyperthreading, and is running at its max turbo speed of 3.9 GHz, you get an "effective speed" of 5.07. The i5-6600K has IPC improvements; divide 5.07 by 1.1, and your i5-6600K would have to be overclocked to 4.61 GHz to keep up but will be more than enough for streaming especially if you plan to buy nvidia pascal GPU in the future which will help a lot. Make sure to buy a cpu cooler like I said to overclock the cpu, like h100i if you go for liquid cooler. And you should have at least 4Mbits upload speed to stream at 720p would recomment above 5Mbits for 1080p streaming quality.

Sretno sa streamom, ako te jos nesto zanima pitaj :)
