Sup, so next year on i'll be focusing more on streaming on my twitch account, Any recommendations on how i could improve my pc? Now first off i'm unemployed and poor so keep it in mind, my current pc is the strongest i've ever had:

Ryzen 7 1700x
16Gb ddr4
GTX1050ti
500gb & 750gb hdd's(not ssd)

Now i've been thinking of maybe try to see if i can find another 16gb ddr4 stick but so far now luck, they are all in the R1000+ range which puts a hold on that plan, hell i would love to upgrade my 22" 1600x900 to an fhd but they're also really expensive, naturally if my twitch channel ends up getting donations and things like that, i would be putting it into upgrading my pc. Any ideas while keeping the cost to a minimum would be great, And just in case anyone is willing to assist, i'm in durban lol

But yeah just need some advice, trying to turn my usual gaming into a potential income as for the past 6yrs, i haven't found work now
 
I'd start with an SSD, for your OS and most used programs & games. Then maybe the RAM and GPU. If you get a good enough GPU then you could stream off the GPU, freeing up the CPU for everything else.
 
Second the above regarding an ssd, not only for streaming but in general it makes the PC far more usable

Your link doesn't work, it times out
 
The problem is ssd's is really expensive
Just saw this response now.

Even a smaller 240gb just for Windows would help alot, and is around R500 or even cheaper if used.

Other than that I am not sure what recommendations you expected since an SSD is about the cheapest upgrade you can do.
