I recently had the following specs:
AMD FX 4100
GTX 970
8gb ram (nothing special)
and 1tb hdd
120gb ssd for OS.

Now, i have a friend wanting to get rid of his intel i7 2600k with the 6z68 motherboard and another 8gb of ram. (2x4gb just like i had except this motherboard has 4 slots)

Do you think "upgrading" to the i7 2600k and 16gb of ram would be nice for streaming or recording gameplay?
