Will a i5 6600k bottleneck a gtx 980? I'm trying to play 4k AAA games

Trying to play 4k 60fps. at least 1440p at 60fps. Will a i5 6600k bottleneck a gtx 980?

At 4k the CPU is rarely a bottleneck, and thats one of the best gaming CPUs right now, so you are safe.

There is no video card that the i5 6600k would bottleneck

I have an i5 2500k and a 980 ti. I ran some tests the other day and the cpu didn't even come close to bottlenecking the GPU.
