RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X 16GB DDR3 1600MHz
GPU: ASUS GTX 770
SOUNDCARD: Asus Xonar DGX
SSD: Samsung EVO 250GB

thinking about streaming gameplay on twitch and if I do should I just build a new computer with a i7/i9 or will my i5 suffice?

Depends on your budget. If you are upgrading your GPU, I would upgrade your CPU too.
i7 8700k or i7 9700k are very good CPUs that arent too expensive.
Like what Mr.Money said, it will last you for a while.

But not sure if your motherboard supports the chip...
