Streaming performance is constrained by your CPU capacity. For optimal results, consider a high-end Ryzen processor instead of a motherboard with limited cores. If sticking with Intel, opt for the 8700K (6 cores, 12 threads) or the i9 desktop platform—both require significant investment and may not improve your experience compared to a Ryzen upgrade. The next Ryzen 2 (Ryzen+ version) is expected soon; upgrading then would be wise. Alternatively, you could use a separate machine for streaming with a video capture device.

The 4790k could offer better value since the RAM needed for that CPU is nearly comparable to the CPU itself.

That's what I considered, but I'm not sure how to locate safe refurbished Haswell i7s.

It sounds like you're thinking about a usage rate around 78 to 85 percent.

On CPU or GPU? I think GPU is better since it provides the power needed to enlarge the display and handle the preview smoothly.
