I have an MSI B150M Bazooka motherboard and I want to upgrade my cpu. Whats the best one out there right now for the price of $300 or below?
I currently have a intel i5-6500 3.2GHZWhat CPU do you have currently? On B150, you're limited to an i7-6700/6700K or 7700/7700K as the "best", but you're typically looking at the overpriced used market for that.
Whereas you could net comparable performance, on a new platform with something like a 3300X (if you can find one) / B450 + DDR4 for ~$300
Or a 6c/12t Ryzen5 2600 (or 3600), B450 and 16GB 3200MHz DDR4 for ~$250

My friend a says my league of legend stream on discord lags despite me streaming from the source with dizcord nitro. What else can i do to improve it aside cpu upgrade?At the end of the day, ryzen 2600 and even the i7 upgrade is just not worth your money. AMD 3600 or higher would be recommended.
Look at it this way. AMD 4000 are rolling out this fall, this means your 2600 is going to be 2 generations old even before you break the seal. The 4000 doesn't offer immense performance increase over the 3000 (not proven on paper yet). but the 3000 is quite noticeable in comparison to 2600.
At this time, I would strongly recommend for you to wait and save up a little more money, 400-450$ will get you the sweet spot of performance right now while offering better long term results. Besides, your 6500 is still performing decently today.

LoL shouldn't be lagging on a 6core cpu when streaming, unless your video content settings are too high.
