Unless you already got the board. Go for Z97 and 4690K. Much better performance than any FX CPU in gaming. As for SSD go for at least 120GB. Video cards I'd recommend a 970, but if you really want AMD wait for a couple months if you can to see if they announce their new cards. Otherwise grab a couple 280X's or 290's.
