As title will this be okay? 2500K is overclocked at 4.2ghz.

Personally I wouldnt, I use a 2500k@ 4.6 and a 980 and I can see the CPU bottleneck the 980 in some recent titles.
I'm still at 1080p and push 60+ fps on most games, but for higher framerates a better CPU is needed. BF4 for instance, 60-120fps with CPU usage pegged at 100% and GPU usage 70-100%, with an i7 that would be near enough a locked 120fps.

I would (and do).
[email protected] with a GTX1070. At 1440P Doom averages ~100fps, GTA V ~75fps and The Witcher 3 ~60fps, all with settings near max'd.
There may be a bit of bottlenecking, but games are running well. Not worth upgrading CPU/MB just yet.
Yeah most singleplayer games like Doom and Witcher 3 are fine since they aint CPU intensive. I was talking about CPU intensive stuff like Battlefield, Crysis 3 absolutely hammers i5s with that grass, Ubisoft games, RTS like Total war. If you want solid minimum FPS with a high end GPU a 2500k wont cut it
