I have got i5 4670 + gtx 950 and when i'm trying to stream games on youtube/twitch/goodgame/hitbox or whatever, my CPU overloads and i can't stream basically.
Games:

dota 2
bf1
doom
Starcrfat 2
I decided to buy a better PC which goes like this:

i7 6700k + GTX 1060 EXTREME GAMING 6GB
16 gb RAM ddr4
And the other hardware on the same level.
I'm a little scarry that i won't be able to stream and i will be have lags with this graphics card.
I'm not a dic* and i cant set my graphics settings in game a bit lower in case it's needed but my goal is:
streaming 1080p / 60 fps.
Games:

Dota 2
Starcraft 2
And sometimes a new games like BF1, Doom, ect.

Is this GPU is enough or i should be getting somnething better like 1070?

Post a log, otherwise people won't be ablte to help you.

Streaming at 1080/60 is taxing and not recommended. The gpu doesn't have anything to do with being able to stream, if you are using x264 as an encoder. The lag you are refearring to most likely comes from the cpu that splits it's computing power between the game and the encoder, in this case the game doesn't get the power it needs to run smoothly.

If you have two pcs now, you could do a dual set up. One pc would do nothing but gameplay, discord and music while the other handles the stream.
