So I have and i5 4570 and a GTX 760. Instead of purchasing a GTX 780, I could replace the motherboard (Asus Z87-C) and buy another 760 along with the i7 4670K. What would be the best motherboard for this and do I need a new CPU? Any suggestion is fine.

The i7 is the 4670k. It is the 4790k.

Why are you upgrading to an i7? It will not do anything for you in gaming performance. You have ZERO need for it.

Get a z97 board that run two PCI slots at x8/x8.

The reason I was planning on upgrading to an i7 now was because down the road the new CPU's might not be for z97.

The i7 4790k is still z97. There is no reason to change at all. You will not get any better performance in games at all. It is just a big waste of money.

You aren't future proofing or anything like that by going to an i7 from an i5.
