okay, can the 6670 max out on dota 2 and will it bottleneck the i5 3570k. I will be buying the new 8xxx series when it comes out. (Not straight away, probably in 3 months after it gets cheaper)

yes most defintly dota 2, LOL is more cpu intensive and the 3570k is more than enough for both games i don't know about ultra setting but easily high with 60 fps

The 6670 is 10 tiers higher than the recommended. I'm sure it will do fine.
