Will an i5-7600 bottleneck an RTX 2060 super?

Budget (including currency): 450$

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Red Dead Redemption 2 (eventually), Deus Ex Mankind Divided, Hitman 2, Dishonored 2, Doom Eternal, Modded Skyrim SE, Basic Video-editing in Sony Vegas, Image/Gif-editing in Photoshop

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Upgrading from Gtx 1060 6GB (MSI Armor) to RTX 2060 Super (EVGA). Resolution: 1080p, Refresh rate: 60Hz

New to LTT forums here. I'd ordered an EVGA RTX 2060 super a few days ago and I've been doing some research on bottlenecks. I know it depends on workloads, but for the games listed above, will the i5-7600 cause a bottleneck for the resolution (1080p) and refresh rate (60Hz) stated?

Yes it will, especially in places like creative productivity

 

Gaming it will be good enough, but will struggle with newer titles

I had a typo in the title of this post. Meant to say, "will an i5-7600 bottleneck a RTX 2060 super".
