[SOLVED] Ryzen 5 1600 vs Ryzen 7 1700 (50$ price diff.)

[RockGTR]

I'm building a new system and the R7 1700 costs 50$ more than the R5 1600.
My basic usage is playing BF5 and some casual streaming to YouTube.
Question:- Is is worth the extra 50$ for the R7 1700?

$50 is worth it for the extra two cores/4 threads especially with streaming.

However when are you building this system? If not for a month or so I'd wait for 4rd gen Ryzen, if the specs from this article are true then you could probably get the 3600 which is faster for around the same price.
