1TB Seagate HDD is my main.
120GB Sandisk SSD is for windows and a few other programs.

It would bottleneck for sure but how hard it does depends on the games. In general, I assume you'd be able to use 60-70% of the GPU. That shouldn't be such a huge problem though, you can upgrade your CPU later.

Every PC has a bottleneck, don't worry about it. A 4670 is a fine CPU.
Bottlenecks are purely dependent on the current task a PC is doing. In theory there will be occasions where your GPU is bottlenecking your CPU.

at 120/144hz the CPU will bottleneck that GPU. At 60hz though should be fine.
I'd also recommend getting a large 500GB-to-1TB SSD for faster load times if you can afford it.

something will always bottleneck. if not you would have the perfect system and thats not possible.
Your CPU might be on limit on big simulations that need a lot of cpu power but this should not be the big problem tbh. And your GPU will have problems with UHD+ everything on ultra in newer games...
BUT
this system sounds fine and you will have a lot of fun with it.

I'm going to be buying a GTx 1070/Ti atleast between now and the end of the year.
I am worried that it could bottleneck something.
These are my specs at the moment.
i5-4670 3.4GHz
Gigabyte Z87X-HD3
16GB Ram
Windows 10 64 Bit
