I'm building a new rig and got stuck deciding what GPU I should get.
Also, is i7-4770k worth the extra 100€ or should I stick to i5-4670k and is there any advantages to i7 now or in the future worth the extra money?
2x 760gtx or 780gtx

Coh2 doesn't support SLI, so for coh2 a 780gtx would be better 
If you only game on your pc an expensive processor isn't a smart investment as most games are gpu limited. If you do things like video editing it's a different story though.

I would stick with a single GTX780 as joe stated. As for the cpu I would go with the i5 4670 unless you have money to burn. But for gaming, you won't see any real difference with those two cpu's so go for the cheaper one.

I actually do some video editing and shooping. I'm assumming i7 with HT is beneficial at editing etc, but still, is it worth the extra money if i5 can handle video editing too.
What about future games?

i7 will benifit encoding and editing but practically none in gaming.
Always always always get the single highest end card you can afford, then later if you feel like it you can always get another.

Agreed with all the posts above.
Even i5 4430 combined with HD 7870 will get you really really nice graphs.

780 + i5 is more than enough.
