The above is similar to what I'd recommend. Same CPU, case, memory, HDD etc.

In fact, there's little I'd change.
1) Maybe add a 120GB SSD and install Windows/apps on that (Steam/games/downloads on the hard drive). A 120GB Sandisk is about $60.

2) Possibly a different motherboard. I didn't see any customer reviews so I have no feedback on that board.
Such as: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-z97a

3) Recommend a non-stock CPU cooler (CM "EVO" or for quieter a Noctua NH-U12S)

4) Better graphics card?
Since you aren't at your top budget you may wish to consider a GTX870/880 (870 may be $350 to $400 and GTX780 performance; 880 may be $500 and GTX780Ti performance) which should be coming soonish.

5) Mini-ITX build?
Since...

5) Mini-ITX build?
Since it's being shipped you may even want to consider a MINI-ITX build with a mini-ITX 1150 socket motherboard and compatible case.

Mini-ITX Asus motherboards: http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/motherboard/#qq=1&sort=d5&f=8&m=8

I recommend THIS one if considering mini-ITX: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-h97iplus

Mini-ITX case: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/bitfenix-case-bfcpro300wwxkwrp

You can GOOGLE and find videos of people building with this case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKIsrwS3fX4

PSU: ATX for the above case, but may want a SEMI or FULL-MODULAR power supply like the Corsair CX600M.

There are much small mini-ITX cases but you'd have to carefully research those. Like THIS one which is good for the size but personally I want more space: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-case-rc130kkn1 (need to carefully research the CPU cooler).
