i5 760 vs AMD Fx4100

Solution
depends on the software you are going to use.
you will have to dig the internet.
Personally, I'd pick an i5 as it generally perform much better. not to mention that games like BF1 are simply unplayable with FX processors.

You sure? I did some research before putting up questions here and some benchmarks favour AMD Fx4100 and some favour i5. Each Benchmark contradicts another. So confusing lol.
 
I'll rephrase.
i5 is way better for gaming.
FX (stock clocks) can be better for some very specific workloads but modern games are multi threaded.
Also, the i5 760 can be overclocked to 4.xGHz within reasonable voltage.
Anyway the gaming performance difference between lynfield i5 (like i5-760) and skylake (like i5-6600K) on the same clock is about 10-15%.

Yeah I play games too but I need it for another purpose. I wanna confirm whether it can perform better than Fx 4100 while live streaming or not?
