Would an i5 4690 bottleneck gtx 1070/1060?

Would this CPU bottleneck any of the cards above noticeably?

No. A 4690 is still one of the highest end CPUs, and you should not expect it to bottleneck even a GTX 1080 below 4K
At 4K, the i7 shows some gains, indicating a slight bottleneck in some tasks.

For a 1060 or 1070, I'd expect 1080p or 1440p, so there would be no bottleneck.

Mostly 1060 im thinking of buying the palit version cause its the cheapest one and also the 3 gig version so i just dont want to run into slow cpu issues you know 😀

As an owner of the i5 4690 (and i have a test build in my work with a GTX 1070) i can confirm there is no bottlenecking.
