Ryzen is consistently better for streaming. I would wait for Ryzen 3000 series, and if you can't find a low enough priced 8 core 3000 series, look for a deal on an 8 core 2000 series. The price on the 2000 series will no doubt drop when the 3000s release.

It's important you pair a Ryzen with fast RAM though. Go with 3200 speed, or at least 3000 speed. 3200 shouldn't be a problem though because RAM prices are so good even the speeds up to 3200 can be had pretty cheap now.

An older Intel 4 core is not advisable for streaming though, and even their new 6 core, which is higher priced than Ryzen 2000 8 core, can't stream as well.
