From what I've heard on various forums, any i5 will produce a bottleneck of varying degrees on a 780.
This is all based on reading anecdotal reports though. I haven't used intel for years so I really have no idea (although I do want to upgrade to an i7 sometime in the next year or so).
I got my answer (same what you said) on another part of this forum, so i got me an i5 4690 planned for next month.
What i did read was that an i5 is enough for gaming, no need for an i7, so that saves me some money.
