Just like in title. Do I need CPU (example i7 6700K) To run GPU like... GTX 1070 or 1080 ?

Now I'm using AMD FX-6350

So will my current processor run Nvidia GTX 1070 GPU ?

(And also I know that I will have lower FPS in games with my cpu)

It most likely will run it, with bottlenecks. Every system bottlenecks, but on games that are CPU intensive there will be a bottleneck ocurring that will most likely be noticeable.

You can upgrade your CPU to something like the i5-6600K and it will run efficiently for you. You could also wait a month or two and go with AMD's Ryzen/Zen or Intel's Kaby Lake releases. But a 6700K would also fit nicely for more CPU intensive games that can utilise the extra threads. Such as BF1
