I have a gtx 1070 graphics card from msi and need to upgrade my CPU to prevent bottleneck. My Motherboard has an 1150 socket, and I could buy a i7 4770 for 75€ or an i7 4790K for 150€. Which one is better for my GPU and for the money?

as i can see in your other posts you have an overclocking motherboard. In that case i think that if you plan to oc then get the 4790k, if not the 4770

It doesn't really matter - the 4790 and 4770 are mostly identical.

I see, the 4790k has overclocking support and higher base and boost clocks though. I don't think he would go wrong either way. However, since neither of them has much life ahead of them and you'll end up changing them in 3 years i guess, go for the 4770
