Go 8 gigs of ram (switch out the blue ram, it clashes with the mobo color) and the 4690k and then get a GTX 980, also see if you can afford a h80i it performs a good bit better than an h75

Go for 8gb of ram unless you use lots of tabs on the Internet. Also you don't need a 980 just a 970

If this is principally a gaming and general purpose system then an i5-4690K and 2x4GB of memory is more than sufficient.
