Im deciding between the I7 7700k or the Ryzen 1800x, but I want to know how big of a difference would an I7 7700k have to the Ryzen when streaming? Would it be worth getting the Ryzen even though I will be streaming maybe two times a month?

It isn't necessary. However because you are sorta allergic to OC'ing I do recommend the X.

Some food for thought

If mostly gaming and only streaming once in awhile in i7 might be a better choice. If going ryzen that sounds like a lot of money for such infrequent streaming, maybe consider a 6c/12t r5 at around $250 rather than nearly $500 for the r7 1800x. Put the extra money toward the gpu or just save it.
 


I'd chose the Ryzen 1700. It can be OC'd should you want to push a few extra hundred MHz out of it.

I might OC in the future but I feel like if I try to OC, I will break some of my components.
