Okay so, I've configured a pc online that I'm happy with, however I have an i7 processor with it, which part of me thinks is a bit overkill.

I'm tempted to switch out the i7 for an i5 and instead replace my GTX 760 with 770.

What should I do guys?

I want to be able to live stream comfortably, and record my games.

I would go with an i5 as i7 is overkill unless you render a lot of things.

The i5 - 770 combo will give better gaming performance.
