If you want ATX form factor this Asus would be good:

If you can stretch your budget a bit more get this ASRock Fatality... gamer oriented

If you plan to overclock get a z87 board now instead of having to buy one down the road, like the Gigabyte Z87 Sniper or Asus Maximus VI Hero, Z series boards are meant for overclocking, H or B series motherboards are not, so there wouldn't be a point in getting a K series processor. An i5-4670 would serve your build better instead.
