I5 3470 3.2Ghz to i7 7700K

I just wanted to ask,how big of a jump will that be to upgrade my cpu(i5 3470) to an i7 7700k
will it make a really big performance in games?

In gaming 30% + and in heavy cpu oriented application way higher. Also keep in mind many games are also very dependent on graphic card utilization so on those it will scale differently depending on your current graphics card.

I have a gtx 970

970 is nice card, will do just fine. You can even consider budget 2560x1440p monitor down the road to complement rest of the PC if you go that route.
