What do you mean? i7 doesn't magically increase frame rates.

If you have a dual core E8500 with a 4670, an i7 with a 4670 will perform pretty much equally, give or take a couple of fps.

Where it shines is when you have a lot of GPU power. If you had two 285's with an E8500 and two 285's with an i7, the i7 WILL have better FPS, not because the i7 enhances it, but because the dual core is bottlenecked. An i7 with a 4870 is NOT identical to an i7 system with, say, three 4870's.
