The 7700 is a better processor.

16GB of memory is about the standard now for gaming since 8 GB is now borderline in some games.
For a 1080p monitor with 144 refresh rate a GTX 1080ti is just overkill even a GTX 1070 would do fine. So the GTX 1080 would work fine and have a bit of future proofing if their such a thing.
Myself I would try to get the i7 7700K paired with a Z270 board and a 2X8GB set of 3000 memory.

Is it strictly for 4k? I mean the better card can do more fps right? Also which build would be better for streaming. Curious if the 16 gbs is really worth it nowadays

Sure it can, but you get absolutely no benefit once it is over ~150 FPS. Plus weaker CPU may bottleneck it.

I don't plan to OC, but I think investing in a newer mobo, 16gb ddr4 ram, cpu would be better than a 3 gen old cpu and a enthusiast high end gpu and 8 gb ddr3
