1026.93$ + (120$*2) = 1266.93$

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

if you really want it under $1300 you can get a 1tb drive instead of that 2tb one, a cheaper aio, or a smaller ssd

There really is no point in having a K proc with a H board. I would swap either the Proc for a 4690 or go for a Z97 board. My suggestion is change the H97 to a Z97 board and keep the 4690K

Oops, didn't notice that was a H board, thought it was a Z board. I had the M/B set to Z97 only, so that's kinda weird.

The case will fit it but be aware that the PSU in the above list is 9 inches 228mm long so a bit bigger than the standard 160ishmm most PSUs of that wattage are.

Go with a less expensive ssd, Crucial CT256MX100SSD1 perhaps, and a Hyper 212 EVO cpu cooler.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

You could of course go 280x.  You would have to determine if the 280x looks like it could drive the usage you want with it on a dual monitor setup.
