Hi I am building a pc which I believe is going to be good for streaming and gaming but am overall not sure.
The specs are:
Force Gaming Case - Black - RGB Fans - Card Reader - Lights With Remote Control
Ryzen 2700x
Gtx 1050 ti
16gb ddr4 ram
480gb ssd drive
1 tb hard drive
Asus PRIME A320M-K
The game I will be playing is Fortnite, do you think I will be able to stream 720p 60fps?

Tech stuff,
It's a good idea to spare extra CPU cooler, but I never found bad post on wraith max (Ryzen 1800X included cooler) cooler, unless you like the pure rock. So you can put pure rock as back up plan. I'd spare extra 92 mm fan should you find the stock cooler (wraith max) fan be too noisy.

Skimp spindle 1TB HDD, opt for 1TB SSD

Invest on quality PSU, platform architecture changes rapidly but not PSU tech, so I'd get Seasonic Titanium Grade PSU, Titanium grade PSU deliver higher efficiency, abstract picture is when your system draw ~ 100W, a regular 80+ PSU adds extra 20% watt (100W AC becomes 120W DC), a typical Titanium adds ~ 10% watt.

Your system has a high end CPU and a low/mid level GPU. That isn't a recommended combo for a pure gaming setup. Anything 2600 and up will work fine for streaming.

That motherboard is really cheap with a weak VRM that cannot overclock and,will need a bios update to work.

Do you think the risen 1800x would be better for this pc build.

doubt it. The 2600x out performs the 1800x due to its reduced latency and higher clocked iPCs.

If you're going to build around a 1050 TI, you should probably just use the 2600x. Otherwise, its better for you to pick a faster GPU. Something like a GTX 1070 Ti or GTX 1080 TI would be a better fit for the 2700x.

the 1700x is pretty much the same as the 1800x just with a slightly slower performance across the board.

Ideally all of these CPU's will accomplish the task you want. But, spending your money in the right place is what you should consider. the 2600x is faster than the 1700x for a cheaper price.

Depend on what streaming codec you're familiar with, personally I prefer ReLive over ShadowPlay, about the hardware spec, there're various bit rate to choose, so a higher bit rate would prefer discrete graphic card and plenty of testing.
There were no specific math on how stream processors would be used for hardware encoding during game session, so a 60 FPS on 720p generally would run on any 1060 6GB or Vega 56 GPU so like others responded you should opt for at least GTX 1070
