PCIe 3.0 4x is PCIe 2.0 8x, which is more then fine. Don't worry about it

I'd suggest getting a new CPU, Motherboard, PSU, and maybe a nice air-cooler.
Scratch the Air Cooler.
Grab this:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($256.89 @ DirectCanada) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97X-GAMING 7 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($208.98 @ Newegg Canada) Power Supply: Corsair RM 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($104.99 @ NCIX) Total: $570.86 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2015-01-15 13:21 EST-0500 Prices are in CAD, so it's roughly 20 CAD less than 500 USD. -

i5 or i7 and a supported mobo.
Get a nice cooler. Preferably air, but that's just me
A case, if you don't like yours.
Mechanical keyboard

i5-4440 is better for H81/B85 boards, because it's guaranteed compatible without possibly needing a BIOS update to use Refresh chips.
No game at the moment will run any better with an i7 over an i5.
Also save your money and get the i5-4440, 4690 non-K will be of no benefit.

Do not get Corsair RM PSU's, they are a waste of money.
