Looking to get a new processor for my computer that can handle streaming/cpu demanding games with ease.

Here's my current build. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gWbHsJ

I think the most impressive thing about your build is that you aren't using a cpu!

I didn't put one because I wanted somebody to choose one that's compatible with my current build that's good. 

just get a i7 6700k, problem solved, or if you have a bit of change rollin, a 7700

What are you using now? Tbh, you might want to consider selling your current rig and buying a whole new system. At the very least, get an ssd and use it as your boot drive and upgrade your video card to 1070/1080. (Unless you don't game and just browse osrs forums and play osrs.)

I have a 1060, I don't think i'd need to get rid of it.

Yep, that will be enough

I think it will be good to go with a LGA1151 board which makes use of ddr4 ram instead of ddr3 ram. The difference in price for a 1060 3gb vs 6gb does not vary a lot, can be considered.

SSD is not a must but could be useful.

I would go with a 6600k with a Z board. Possible to overclock to 4.5ghz

Please replace your HDD with a SSD. 

Just get a ryzen 1700, multiple cores for multiple bots, can overclock with stock cooler, and its cheap.

If that's part of your current build that you're using currently you're restricted to a cpu with an LGA1150 socket type, so an Intel 4th/5th generation processor is what you're going to want to look into.  Don't know if anyones pointed that out yet.

 

If that's something you're looking to build I'd recommend changing out your motherboard to something with an LGA1151 socket type/Z170 motherboard, and switching to a 6th/7th generation Intel processor such as an i7-6700k or i7-7700k.

Having an i7 vs an i5 will be better if you're intent is to stream games on Twitch or something.

Shitty board, missing processor, and get HDD as well. graphics card will be good for games that aren't very graphic intensive i.e LOL.
