[SOLVED] For streaming / gaming

[pipao]

Good day guys I'm planning to upgrade my current system with the new amd zen3 , just want to know if 5600x would be a good choice or should i go with the 5800x
btw planning to stream 1080p 60fps mainly playing valorant / csgo, thanks

If you're going to be streaming then buy as many cores as you can...the 5600x is a solid cpu but for your intended use I would go with the 5800x.

Your GPU choice also makes a big difference in your CPU needs...current nVidia GPUs easily have the performance edge for streaming...it remains to be seen how the new AMD GPUs will handle on the fly encoding.
