an i5 4440can handle perfectly a gtx 980 (even a i3 can with a slight bottlneck(3-10fps not more)
but if you have the money go for i7
also let me tell you one thing dont worry about cpu in gaming the most important thing is the gpu.
for example an i3+gtx980 perform better then a i5+gtx970 or i7+gtx960 in most games.

The 4770K definitely won't bottleneck the 980. It's about the most powerful desktop CPU on the planet, and that's not even taking into consideration overclocking.
The 4770K won't even bottleneck the Titan X behemoth. You're good to go.

so im good to go on game debate it writesat best cpu match for gtx 980 is i7 4770k but idk i didnt really belived them. So im good to go. Oh also there will be no bottleneck on stock speed cause currently i have h97 mobo and will i7 4770k work with that mobo. So there will be no bottleneck even of i7 4770k 3.5 ghz?
