Will this create a bottleneck?

My present PC specs are as shown:

CPU - Intel i7 6700k

Motherboard - Asus B150 Pro Gaming D3

GPU - Nvidia GTX 960

RAM - 16 GB DDR3

Cooling - 2 Front Intake fans, 1 Rear Exhaust Fan, 2 Top Exhaust Fans

 

I was considering purchasing an RTX 2070, would there be any form of CPU bottleneck or any other?

Thanks

The i7 6700K was fine with a GTX 1080, so it'll be fine with a RTX 2070.
