Don't use an i7. If you want to upgrade, get the i5 3570.(Or get a new motherboard, and the i5 4xxx series).
if you're getting a i7 2600k for cheaper than this, then only get the i7.
You'll not need more than 2 GB for 1920x1080.

2GB is still quite a bit of VRAM. I think it matches your current needs rather well. Once you upgrade one thing, then there is something else you might want to upgrade, and so forth. It's impossible to future proof. I think a better lifespan goal is 3 years.

when you go multi monitor gaming or 4k. even at 1600p/1440p 2GB is plenty if you don't go crazy with AA. but for some people they don't really mind high level of AA at such res (1600/1440 and above)
