IM PROBABLY GONNA UPGRADE TO THE K JUST WANTED TO GET A DECENT MOBO SO THANKS ALOT ;)

Well the i5 4690K+ the mobo I linked would be a good pair. I'd grab a Hyper 212 EVO with it and you'll get a good overclock from it (I got 4.7 :D).

With a LGA2011 a Z97 board will not work. That is for LGA1150 sockets. You will need a Z99 board to support the LGA2011 socket type. 

 

Looking at the the site you listed, there is only 1 Z99 board and it is about 500... so I would suggest you switch up your build.

How much more is the 4690K?

 

And the board I posted above will work well with an i5.

Never heard of apacer, as long as it has a decent warranty it should be ok.

 

Any reason for msata?

 

I'd try grab a regular sata ssd like the mx100 or 840

M.2 is, but mSATA is... SATA.

and also can different company's version of a 780ti go together? e.g gigabyte windforce oc 780ti with an evga classified one?

yes but if you're buying them might as well get them matching for aesthetic purposes :P
