It is only really worth it if you plan to overclock the 4690k. If you don't also have a high-end motherboard to support the overclocking and a good after-market CPU cooler getting the 'k' model wouldn't be the best use of your money.
The i5-4590 is a perfectly good CPU and will be viable for several more years, so if you're on somewhat of a budget I'd recommend sticking with the i5-4590 and putting the 45 EUR towards another part of your system.

I own both (in two different PCs) and as has been said, if you don't plan on overclocking the i5-4690k there's no reason to spend the extra money for it. I get the same performance in games for the most part (using the same quality settings) when I swap the same video card between them.
I'm planning to stream but I'm not going to play demanding games like crysis and etc. only low - normal demanding games like Cs:Go, CoD and MC. Basically games where I have at least 70 fps so i can play on 60 fps. (OBS takes about 10 fps lower)
