So from what I understand, there's almost no gains for me in upgrading?

Are the only gains found at 1080p where the CPU is at 100% usage and the GPU is being bottlenecked?

Since I game on a 3440x1440 100hz panel, my GPU will always be the limiting factor until a couple of years from now. Therefore, there's no need to upgrade my CPU anytime soon. Am I correct in thinking this? Or does upgrading to Kabylake offer actual gains in my specific usage?

4 cores are a dead end for gamers.
