Will my future system be bottlenecked significantly by my CPU?

As of now my desktop consists of a pretty basic Lenovo motherboard(don't know the model), 8GB of DDR3 RAM, an Intel Core i5-4460 3.2Ghz CPU and a GTX 960 2GB GPU.
I am thinking of upgrading later this summer, and i find the GTX 1080 to be especially appealing. Will it work, do i have to settle for a 1070 or do i have to upgrade my rig as a whole?
 
Solution
That CPU will not bottleneck a 1070 or 1080. Right now there are few if any games that need any sort of major i5/i7, the 4460 is more than enough for most every game.
