Setup 1:
Intel Core i5-7600K
Asus Z270-K
CM Hyper 212 X
Zotac GTX 1060 3GB AMP! edition
Hyper X Fury 2133MHz 8GB DDR4 memory
1080p @ 60Hz
Setup 2:
Intel Core i7-7700
Asus B250M-Plus
Intel stock cooler
Zotac GTX 1060 3GB AMP! edition
Hyper X Fury 2133MHz 8GB DDR4 memory
1080p @ 60Hz
The price difference between these two setups is: the setup-1 is at higher cost at the cost of a MSI Z270 PC mate motherboard or ~170 USD.
My question:
Go with setup-1 and not overclock for now. Then while upgrading the GPU in future (let's assume 3 years) and face bottleneck, overclock the 7600K and avoid both the bottleneck & the CPU/Mobo upgrade cost.
OR
Go with setup-2 with less initial build cost (save money and invest in other components). Then upgrade to new GPU (at the same 3 years time) without bottleneck??
In 3 years, at the time when the i5-7600K (stock speed) bottlenecks the new GPU, will the i7-7700 (stock speed) not bottleneck it?
Notes:
Thanks in advance.

Notes:
This is for knowledge purpose only.
I don't want to invest more in upgrading the CPU/Mobo in future, because I cannot resale the old CPU/Mobo that easily here.
The i7-7700K is way too overpriced everywhere here, so I can't even think of getting that.
Thanks in advance.
