Have dealt with many setups for streaming and it’s been strictly better to run a 2 PC setup if you want both unhindered gameplay and a smooth stream. That being said my experience with single PC setups is intel based will give you better game performance but not as good stream quality and amd ryzen is flip flopped. If you go i9 or threadripper it’s far more expensive but can nearly mimic 2 PC setups.
I’ve also tried the new el gato pro and really didn’t improve anything and had some serious drawbacks if using a ultra widescreen like a predator. Nvidia with shadowplay is a nice feature, amd has an equivalent but both their cards performance and execution leave much to be desired for bang for buck
