For streaming with your RTX 2070 Super, the i7-9700K offers better performance. The i9-9900KS is powerful but may be overkill unless you need extreme multitasking.

Ensure NVENC is enabled on the GPU during encoding.

That's interesting! I'm curious to know more about how streaming relies on CPU performance.

It really doesn't matter much. Both options are excellent, though if you mainly play on the GPU side, go with the I7. CPU-heavy games will run fine either way. Unless you prefer the prestige of an I9 with an I7, that's not necessary. You might also want to look into Ryzen as an alternative.

Ryzen offers superior performance for streaming compared to other options. You can find a strong core at a lower price, like the RYZEN 7 2700X for $164 in the US. It also surpasses my previous experience with the I7 9th generation.

However I already received the i9-9900ks, yet I was considering swapping it for a different CPU.

Remember that NVENC is a specialized hardware decoder, meaning it won't consume much of your GPU's resources for encoding.
