Which processor?

I'm currently thinking about upgrading my PC and was thinking about which processor to use. I looked around and found the AMD Ryzen 5 2600x but also the AMD Ryzen 7 2700x. Now the question arises which one should I take?

I plan to play games with the PC but also stream e.g. On Twitch.

The Ryzen 5 is a little cheaper than the Ryzen 7, so I wanted to know if the Ryzen 5 could do it if I might play a game but also stream it?

It depends on which games you play and with which settings.

And what else is in your PC?

Regarding AMD processors, I don't really know my way around. But if I were you and the Ryzen 5 is just "a little" cheaper, I'd rather choose the safe side and take the slightly more expensive one!

All kinds of games.

I still have:

MSI RX 580

RAM 16GB DDR4 3000mhz

Yes is enough.

If you want to stream with decent quality, the 2 extra cores from the 2700 are definitely worth it.
