OK here we go, 
i7 2600k overclocked to 4.4ghz with water cooling
16gb ram
gtx 970
..
my father wants to get me something
I guess processor is not gonna make a big difference, and its to expensive to upgrade yet
Should i get gtx 1070 or simply add one more gtx 970
processor shouldnt bottleneck me ? 
Im planning on playing BF1 at highest settings i can with 100+ fps at min 
Suggestions welcome!

I would go for the GTX 1070. It seems like SLI has gotten a better, but it still looks like it has a little more to go. Plus then you can try re-purposing the 970 or selling it for some extra walking around cash or buy something else for your rig.

The i7 2600K holds up extremely well for its age. Unless you're playing something that heavily relies on single core performance, you should be fine with the GTX 1070.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.
