Will a G4560 bottleneck a 1060 6GB or a 480 8GB?

Will it bottleneck that grade of card severely? I am buying one to upgrade to a 7700k in a year, that's why most of the money is allocated to the motherboard - for overclocking, and I will keep the GPU for a while after. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/7RVCtJ is my build

Best I'd go with that CPU is an GTX 1050Ti/R9 380X/RX 470 as I've seen it being maxed out @100% across all 4 threads when paired with a GTX 960 2GB in GTA V Benchmark tool...

 

So basically, unless the game is CPU demanding you'll be fine, but games like BF1, ROTTR, The Witcher 3 or Watch Dogs 2 might work pretty bad with a 1060/480.

 

If you still decide to get the 1060 or 480, I suggest you get the 1060 as Nvidia drivers have lower CPU overhead and it shouldn't be as bad as with the 480 despite the 480 being a better buy with a faster CPU.

if im upgrading to a 6700k/7700k, i want my gpu not to make that upgrade not worthwhile, Thats why i was considering the 480/1060 as at 1440p or 1080p they will be good with any cpu i can buy
