Ryzen 7 2700 vs. Ryzen 5 2600X, Which is better for streaming and gaming?

[Yoda777]

Currently debating which CPU to buy for my new build that I will be gaming and streaming a lot off of. Which will give me better quality and better performance. 2700 is about $40 more on eBay, is it worth the extra 40?

I would think 6c/12t is proving to be enough for most folks, so put the cost difference into the GPU!

Ryzen 2600 is the best bang for buck . Np for gaming/streaming . It can handle 100 to 120 fps no issues
