Hi, welcome to the forum.

If you want the best gaming + streaming CPU that would be the newer i7-8700K. It can do both, just like the Ryzen 1700 could do both no problem (but Intel will squeeze out more frames in general for gaming). Don't see the need for two PCs with such chips.
 
I know it can be more than I need in this setup but I already have this ryzen with gf 1070 and its isnt enough to get stable 144 fps in my games with streaming so I want to make sure for now and future I have 2 monster to easy play and stream so main question is I dodnt mess with cpu and motherboard compatibility? I checked this and it should be fine but I want to make double check here

The PC should all be compatible, but I wouldn't buy a 7700k now that Coffee-Lake is out.



Would also swap the PSUs of both PCs to something like this:

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £156.04 (includes shipping: £11.10)
​

For the first PC, this Seasonic PSU is a higher quality, fully modular, more efficient unit with a 10 year warranty (existing BeQuiet PSU is only 3 years).

For the second PC, this 450w Bitfenix unit is higher quality and offers more than enough wattage. Also has a longer warranty.
 
An alternative first PC:

You probably don't need the 8700k if you have a dedicated streaming PC. But the 8700k would 'age' better due to the extra threads.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,773.11 (includes shipping: £15.30)


The GTX 1070ti isn't a great price, but neither are the GTX 1080s (p.s. overclock the 1070ti to get 1080 performance).​


And alternative streaming PC:

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,109.17 (includes shipping: £15.30)



Have left Antec case same as your original as they are subjective.​

Wow thanks for such a long postI will check tests in games with these two cpus. Are you shure 450 w will be enough , when I want to oc cpu(if I will choose K version) plus Aio cooling plus many devices plugged in like gaming wheel gear and pedals and all dat stuff at the same time?I checked power calculator but it didnt give me any answers
 
I don't think you need to spend that much on the separate streaming pc, 8GB ram will be enough and just a very basic GPU like the 1030 will be enough. Even the processor could be toned down to a Ryzen 5. You could go for a 2TB HDD instead for archiving.

The main PC where you actually play the games should be strong but won't need a i7 if you have a separate streaming pc. So a i5 8600k/16gb ram/1070(or ti) should work out well.
 
Guessing you've researched as your using 2 rigs for streaming .
But second pc doesn't have to be very powerful at all, two vendors currently looking at two palm sized units to do this for pro streamers .
Would focus on getting your gaming PC solid , specially now 4k 60hz capture cards are coming out .
Gamers nexus did a cracking write up on streaming/capturing about different flagship cores, but this was single based. Would personally still make the first system i7 K and gtx 1080 to keep average and minimum frame rate as high as possible

I know Aorus 7 has based onboard sound , least for outputting bit not sure for sound quality in - worth checking and then I didn't check to see if you'll be commentating over it ?
 
Ram will be more than enough I guess for 1 program obs I know this setup is overprized for someone of you gentelmans ,but please remember I want be sure and I also buying 1 pc bcs I already owned ryzen and gf 1070 with motherboard from overclockersok I think it can be closed now bcs I know now all otems included in my specs will be compatible no matter if its overprized or something. Thanks for all answers , I hope I will post on this forum how far I goes with oc i7have a good life
 
Honestly if you've got the 1700 set up, would splash the cash on gtx 1080 Ti for it and i3 coffee lake for the streaming PC with 4K capture card 60hz .
Having to flagship systems on each platform with one sat for the piggie back system hurts tour wallet , unless you'll game in them both ?
