i7 8700k /i5 9600k or RTX 2070

[Oceandar]

I have i5 4690k with GTX 1070. Which one should I upgrade, new system with i7 8700k (or i5 9600k) or RTX 2070. It would cost me about the same in the end as I can sell the old one (well, 2070 route little bit cheaper)
I play mostly DCS World on 1080p or 1440 with 60 hz.

Thank you

I'd have to go with the cpu upgrade because I don't think you can go with much more than a 1070 without the cpu bottlenecking you.

Now which CPU should I get, i5 9600k or i7 8700k ? Which one is more easy to overclock ?

Thanks

The 8700k is a faster cpu....as far as overclocking...I don't know.
You will be able to run just about any GPU with either.
