Since you have all the peripherals, you could squeeze a i5-4690k (devil's canyon, best overclocking chip atm) and z97 mobo with a r9 280x (better) or nvidia gtx 960 (less good)
The GPU would be refurbished, with a $15 off code SPRING15

Though the above build you would also need to add a CPU cooler if you want to overclock. Alternatively you could go for the dual core pentium g3258 and overclock the crap out of that, and get a better GPU.

Probably the 1st one is a better bet... quad core really comes in handy with stuff like BF4.
