Those are basically the easiest games you can possibly run... not a very good representative test at all.
I was CPU bound in fallout 4 at 1080p60fps. CPU bound in the Division as well. CPU/memory bound in Witcher for minimum frame rate.
Your minimum framerates will improve quite a bit with a platform upgrade too between the CPU increase and RAM speed increase. Lots of little dips and stutters you got used to seeing will no longer happen.
a 6700k @ 4.5+ with DDR4 3600 would be a noticeable improvement even with your 290 and even more so on a 1070 where you push into the upper boundary of what FPS your 2500k can push.
But yeah, what the hell do I know, I'm only a guy who had a 2500k @ 4.5 with a 290 who upgraded his platform.
We can agree that if I upgraded to Skylake then I would see a performance boost
