Hi. Look for something by ASRock. Thinking that processor is a socket 1150.

This one for CF AMD GPU only http://www.flipkart.com/msi-z87-g41-pc-mate-motherboard/p/itmdrgadshtxyqs4?pid=MBDDRGADSHTXYQS4&srno=b_14&ref=621f968f-8b40-49dd-bd38-ca1bad0ef064

Asrock h87 performance features rich and cheap
From personal experience asrock is reliable
You wont get all this features and price in other brands i also suggest to get the i5 4570, and avoid corsair vs series its pretty bad and also doesn't support haswell.
As for the vga Id suggest the EVGA or Gigabyte for the 760.
You dont need a z87 motherboard as they are focused on overclocking.

The MB does play the major role of the games, the GPU is more important, you have the i5 even you get the k version after you oc the cpu, your game fps will not increase too much.
Like i5 4670k at 3.4 or 4.6ghz http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2013/06/12/intel-core-i5-4670k-haswell-cpu-review/5
And the some MB benchmark http://us.hardware.info/reviews/4444/46/33-haswell-motherboard-group-test-26x-z87-4x-h87-and-3x-b85-benchmarks-passmark-8-cpu-and-ram
And the one of H87 review. http://extremespec.net/gigabyte-ga-h87m-d3h-motherboard-review-design-testing-performance/3/
