Get a 4690K, Z97 board, DDR3 and a decent PSU - the VS and CX from Corsair are not good for a gaming build

No sense - you're wasting about 100-150$ for 8% more CPU power - put that towards a GPU and PSU

I haven't decided yet was wondering you guys could help me out 

R9 390 if you have the cash, else R9 380.

if he want latest specs then, go with Haswell then 6600K + Z97 Motherboard, for the GPU get GTX970 or R9390
