I have an r9 390x and will add another one to crossfire after a few months. i want to know whether the 4690k or the 4790k should be preferred since im worried that at high settings, the 4690k might bottleneck the gpu.
i will be playing witcher 3, fallout 4, star wars battlefront, among others at 1440p ultra with 60fps. After some time, i might even go 4k so i hope my cpu doesnt give out too soon.
 
Solution
An overclocked i5 will be perfect for smooth 1440p60. The i7 would provide slightly higher minimum framerates if anything. If you can get the i7, I suggest doing so. Xfire 390x is a lot of horsepower
