Here is a rather neat test from Tom's:
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/game-streaming-encoding-coffee-lake-ryzen,5326-3.html

It is alot to analyze, but shows the strength of having extra threads for streaming.

For the mid range CPUs, the 1600x really puts a beat down on the 8600k for some of the games. As a bonus, it still has more resources left over and the platform is far cheaper. ( hello, H360, are you out there??)
The 7600k is unusable.

On the high end, the 1800x and 8700k are closer with the 8700k having a big advantage in GTA. Still, there is the platform price, especially when paired with an R7 1700(x).

For live streaming, a 6/12 config really is the new sweet spot. Even users of the once mighty 4/8 7700k would see a huge upgrade going to a 6 core or higher Ryzen.

Not bad AMD!
