Motherboard and cpu suggestion

Hello, i'm picking parts for my new PC and when it comes to motherboards i don't really know too much..the prices are so different and i don't want to spend too much for my needs or too little. so the parts: gtx 980 ti, corsair psu 600 or 650 watt, samsung 850 evo ssd, some 2tb hard drive, some i7 processor which has to be great for gaming but not overkill because i'm only aiming for gaming and watching youtube videos on this pc (and it obviously has to fit on this specific motherboard). 16gb ddr3 ram and for the case i'm not decided yet (will be after i know which motherboard will go in). I will NOT overclock any of my parts. So basically if you can help me pick a motherboard which btw has to be eather white or blue color themed and a good for gaming i7 processor which will fit in this motherboard i would be really thankfull :)

You would think Ubisoft would support the Bulldozer based architectures more given their digging themed names like bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller and Excavator.
