Should I upgrade?

[Kiaeneto]

I built my first pc early August. It has 7700k 1080ti 16gb @3200. I mostly want to stream and game at the same time. Would the 8700k be better for this? If I do upgrade how much could I get for the 7700k and maxmius code?

No I don't think there will be much difference in those 2 CPUs. Is your 7700K not performing how you would like? What games do you stream?

I haven't had the time to sit down and configure OBS yet, so I haven't streamed yet. Awhile ago I watched a video bout how 6 cores would be better for streaming/gaming and keep higher fps while streaming at higher video quality. With the quad it would be a small lost to fps while streaming.

I've been playing Rainbow Six Siege, Shadow of War, PUBG and soon to be Assassin Creed. I would like to be able to have all game settings at ultra, get 144fps while gaming at 1440p and stream at 1080p60. Thats why I asked about the 8700k.
