I bought the 1700x. Probably above his price range.

I'm more of a human guy. I've been told I don't express my emotions well though

over clock for processor and mostly game, school work, and streaming
I'd say go with the 6 cores over 4 just to be safe. What motherboard are you planning to go with? Are you planning to buy new memory? Also what cooler do you have atm? I know for some coolers you can buy a Ryzen upgrade kit so your cooler is compatible with your motherboard. Would save quite a bit in that case.

Im looking at 16 gb ram with at least 3000 mhz. For motherboard im looking at the gigabyte b350 gaming 3. Im not too sure which mobo to get as i heard some are having issues.

Also don't stick with base Thermal compound go with some Arctic Silver 3, 4 is dogshit.

Also memory prices pretty much rose to double the original amount. Be prepared to pay a premium for it.

There is no reason you need 6 cores, I run 6 VMs from a Hex Core, and it rarely needs the 4th unless I am killing my machine.
Save yourself a few hundred and get yourself a nice SSD.

Also I'm pretty sure with the new Ryzen series it's a bit better than an i5 purely because of the cores, especially for gaming in the future it'll be worth it especially with a fairly equal price on an i5 and Ryzen 5.

Dont buy expensive now, when nothing needs it really. Price will drop as always.
