ill elaborate on this a bit further. One of the streamers I work with streamed at 1080p, played at 1080p, ran 5 monitors and about 14 peripherals, and were running about 5 programs while streaming. They didn't play the newest UE5 games, but still do play modern release games. They were running a 3600 and a 1070. They had very minimal issues. They eventually did upgrade because they wanted to start playing some newer shit thats horribly optimized like monster hunter wilds and did upgrade their system. However I did get a hold of that rig for a bunch of testing while transferring their shit over to their new PC. I was able to run shit like startfield and oblivion remaster on low/med settings at 30-60fps. When I threw in a 3070 the framerates were completely usable at 45-90fps on medium/high settings. It was able to handle MHW fine as well at around 65fps. GPU matters way more than CPU these days as pretty much every CPU made in the last 6 years is fucking fine.

every dipshit will tell you to find an old am4 system and build off it from there. maybe this will work for you, maybe it wont. Sadly everyone knows this trick by now so even systems with a ryzen 1700 from 2016 will sell for like $700+ - at this $ point its more effective to go AM5 new. The trick is to find rigs based on intel 9th - 12th gen, preferably prebuilds from like ibuypower or origin or whatever. You can frequently find rigs with like a 12700kf and 16gb ddr4 for like $300 or less. Even the 9900kf has a ton of horse power in it. Pair it with a used 3080 for about $350-$400 and an 850w PSU for about $150 and you're off to the races playing everything on high.
>you NEED an X3D cpu!!!
ignore anyone one who tells you this. They are retards and have no idea what they're talking about. If you're not running a 4080/90 or a 5080/90 you're not going to be coming close to a cpu bottleneck and you're not going to see enough of a performance uplift to justify the cost.
