Build: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/g6KcM8 I'm getting this build to game on 1080/1440p. I'm going to get another 1070 in the future so I can play on 4K, would a i5-6600k bottleneck when I do upgrade to 2-way sli gtx1070.
i5 or i7 for my build

Instead of bothering with SLI, just get a GTX1080 now. Technically, the i5 6600k is plenty, but at your budget, I would stick with the i7.
