This is my build so far:
1. Intel i5 4670K Haswell
2. MSI Z87-G45 Motherboard
3. G.Skill 4GB x 2 Ripjaws
4. Asus GeForce GTX760 OC DirectCU II
5. 1TB HDD
6. Corsair GS-700 PS

Thoughts? Is this a good build for gaming or could I get better for the money with some parts? Thanks :)

This comes just a bit over budget, but I think it is about as good as you can get for $1000
