$1.3k is better for you to set aside more budget for the GPU rather than a mobo + CPU.

ASRock B85 Killer + i5-4460 ~ $355
GSKills Ripjaws 1600mhz 2x4gb kit ~ $110
WD Blue 1tb ~ $67
Crucial MX100 256gb ~ $161
Powercolor r9 280X Turbo Duo 3gb ~ $380 (Promo)
Superflower HX600 600w 80+ Gold Semi Modular PSU ~ $108
Sharkoon BD28 ~ $72
Samsung DVD Drive ~ $21

Total ~ $1274. Buy at tradepac. DIY
