A 750w psu is a little much unless you are adding a second card in the future. 

[kingking]

my budget is around 1k - 1.2 k usd

[bobhays]

focused too much on cpu, get an i3 with and h series board, a better gpu like the 760 and a smaller psu.

Even if you were to SLI that 750ti, you'll get no where near that threshold. Also, Just posted a more suitable build in my earlier post.

You can't SLI a 750TI fyi. 

 

If you intend to get a second card later, get a 760 (is there a TI version?) or go back to a 690 so you have consistent performance going forward. 

 

Otherwise I would say get the best dual-core hyperthreaded I3 you can or get a quad-core for future proofing.

A R9 290 would thrash a 760 any day of the week. It's probably one of the best GPU for the money.

My bad. I did a dumb.

correction you can use a Z87 with the i5 4690k with a BIOS update for the board but its a hassle to flash

 

the board is the last thing you need to change in your PC

 

either swap to a slightly higher board like the gaming 5 for SLi

 

the only upgrades i see in the year to come is more gpu power again you need the Gaming 5 board

 

the newer upcoming Broadwell chips need at least a Z97 board to work

 

Z87 do not support Broadwell CPU
