This is pretty similar to a build I did myself, you could downgrade to an i5 4690 to save a couple bucks if you don't want to worry about overclocking. You'll still need a z97 motherboard (instead of an h97) if you want the possibility of adding another graphics card down the road. The power supply should be able to handle a second graphics card no problem. You can obviously change the color of the case/ram to anything you like. There are also a lot of good motherboard options in the price range your looking at. Finally, this is slightly over budget ($1550), but these prices include tax and shipping, and I have my retailers set to only include newegg/amazon.

You can get some decent 4K performance out of this machine already; but, I see some easy upgrades down the road: closed loop water cooler (Corsair H100i or something) for the CPU so you can overclock, another 8GB of RAM, and a second GPU.
