If your just gaming youll be fine, it may not be as good as a 8700k or 9900k, but its pure gaming performance should be adequete.

a i5 4440 compared to a 8600k how much performance in fps do i lose? would you know?

A ton. If you're getting stuttering frames then you probably have a bottleneck going on, feel free to see if your CPU usage is pinned at 100% in task manager. An i7 4770 would make an adequate upgrade.

i was testing out temps are good usage is about 50% on games with 1070 and probs 80-100 on cpu on fortnite all epic settings he gets around 80-100 csgo max settings 100-200 i feel like the fps jumps alot but maybe not it might just be cpu bottleneck

It is probably a CPU bottleneck. Fortnite and CSGO are pretty poor games to benchmark to know for sure though.

it probably is but maybe i just think the fps is bad because my persona rig is 1080 with 8700k or maybe it actually is a bottleneck but who knows

a 1080 with a 8700k is far faster than a 4440 with a 1070, especially in CPU performance.
