Consider switching to a more powerful CPU like an i7 or i9 for better performance.

I’m considering switching from my i5-6500 to a newer chipset. I’m eyeing an AMD 3600X and a Mai Gaming Plus ATX board for improved performance with video editing and streaming. Would this setup be a better fit than the B150A board and the 15-6500? Your current rig runs Windows 10 to 64, has a B150A MSI motherboard, FireCuda 1TB, SSHD, i5-6500, Radeon 590 Fat Boy 32GB (8GB kit), 2400MHz X4, plus an Elgato Game Capture HD60 Pro and Evga Bronze 600 with a 80+ rating and a 120mm fan. You’re also planning to add more fans for better cooling.
I have a budget of about 400 for any additional power supply, as well as the motherboard and CPU.
I understand the same as well, and I see the need for a bit more detail about the performance requirements.
