i will be running on titles such as planetside 2 bf4 gta v witcher 3 battlefront 3 bo3 cod advanced warfare and much more newer titles btw idc bout the price i just want to know which will achieve higher fps and also i want it to be able to handle all new games in the next 3-4 yrs on max graphics

I would still go with the 4790k, I'm running on 5.0Ghz stable (Rare, only the 3rd CPU i got reached that while being stable but most do 4.8Ghz just fine) and The single core performance is amazing!
While the other cores are stressed while gaming (laughable) i still think games today and in a few years are not utilizing more than 2 cores optimally (most i can expect is full 4 core effective usage in 3-4 years).
P.S i run most of these tittles on 4K and 99% of the time above the 60 FPS mark (sometimes reaching 120's), just be sure you are ready to support the CPU with a strong GPU (even SLI/Crossfire) and proper cooling.

SAME in general.
Other:
1) The bottleneck is going to be the GPU except rare cases.
2) The cost difference could go towards a better GPU thus the i7-4790K wins there.
3) Games will slowly shift to use DX12 so attempting to "future proof" is likely pointless beyond the i7-4790K.
*DX12 not only allows more THREADS to be used (i.e. close to 100% usage of CPU depending on game) but is also more efficient at the same time. Even allowing for a game requiring more processing it's very unlikely more than the i7-4790K will benefit much if at all.
It will be interesting to see how long this holds true but I suspect at least five years. After that it may even still be fine as certain CPU code is likely to start shifting over to the GPU though eventually the new game console design will be the way PC's are (CPU/GPU combo and shared video/system memory).
*My vision for long-term PC gaming is an inexpensive PC which can plug in to a MODULE (USB or External PCIe). This module will be comparable to a PS4 without the BD reader. It would have a combo CPU/GPU and a shared memory pool. The main PC would simply copy the game into shared memory and the modules CPU/GPU would then process so the main PC does no calculations itself.
(Theoretically ANY existing computer could just attach such a module once there was driver support. Upgrading would be as simple as adding a USB drive and since the old module is self-contained it could be sold easier. The parts on the module would be optimal for each other thus planning your parts would also be simple... want a good "gaming" upgrade then maybe buy a simple $500 module and plug it in.)
