@Averykindguy1998 this is a great option. I personally have a similar setup ti this build and it holds up pretty damn well on most modern games. Most games maxed out at 1080p i get around 50-65 fps average

I wouldn't get the K version honestly, thats like 100$ saved. The stock performance isnt any better, and they only overclock averagely 400MHz which would be a minor 20% performance improvement so just go with this:
 

 
CPU:  Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($179.99 @ Amazon) 
Motherboard:  MSI H81M-E33 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  ($44.99 @ Micro Center) 
Total: $224.98
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

and it can overclock to 4.6 GHz which is 11% improvement in multi tasking and 12 % increase in overall performance...which will be giving atleast 8-10 fps more than at stock as well as increase in minimum fps...

you could also grab a i5-4670K with an cheaper Asrock H87 Fatal1ty performance motherboard. This asrock board has a feuture in the bios called non Z overclock. The board has an 8 powerphase and digi vrm design, so its more then enough capable of doing a 4.5 oc. just use the non Z overclock feuture in the OC tweaker menu in the bios. and select which speed you want, simple as that. (offcourse you need to be abit of lucky with the cpu)

 

i know it would sound like a bit of marketing crap, but i know some one, who has this, and he has it on 4.5 rocket stable. The point i try to make, is that Z87 board is not allways neccesary.

You could google some information about it your self ""Asrock H87 performance nonZ overclock"".

It's a bit overkill though that extra $75-100 you spend getting that board is better invested in the GPU, or a SSD.

Plan your system as a whole and not part by part unless you're asking for an unbalanced build and/or a bad value.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

If you are just gaming a 4670k would be perfect. And as mother boards go you should get any asus boards.

Or gigabyte... :)
