Ok I'm planning on upgrading my pc build to a gtx 970 with an i5 6600k for gaming. I'll have 16 gb of ram as well. I would like to know what Framerates to expect with this build playing at 1080p and at very high or ultra settings. I'd also be using a 60hz monitor but will upgrade to 144hz at christmas.
The games would be such:
Rainbow six seige
Ark survival evolved
Titanfall 2
Battlefield 1
Wolfenstein the new order
Gta V
Doom(2016)
Arma 3
Rise of the tomb raider
Maybe the Witcher 3 and metal gear solid 5 phantom pain
Fallout 4

Look for benchmarks, you should find them for the games you listed.
The i5-6600K when overclocked on a Z170 motherboard is as good as it gets for gaming.
If you have a cpu limitation, there is nothing better. A I7-6700K would be equal.
As of 5/2016
What percent can get an overclock at a somewhat sane 1.40v Vcore.

I5-6600K
5.0 2%
4.9 11%
4.8 36%
4.7 64%
4.6 88%

On the graphics side, a GTX970 will play most games well at 1080P.
Unless you will get a GTX970 at a significant discount, You would be better served with a GTX1060.
It is more modern, stronger and should cost no more.
