I just switch from the AMD FX 6300 @ 4.5ghz to the i5 4690k and it feels like i'm just built my gaming PC.

Better of getting the i3 4330 then get an i5 or i7 when you can.
If you plan on sticking with a the R9 280 for a while, the FX 8320 will be fine but anything higher than the R9 285 go intel (from experience).

For gaming only, a 6300 would be fine for games that use 6 cores or less. However, the 8320 is a great choice if you want to have a more flexible CPU. Plus the extra 2 cores helps for background tasks.

You'd be better off providing statistical data to back up anecdotal evidence at the very least. Otherwise It's hard to believe an opinion based on words.
According to benchmarks
http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/battlefield-4-vga-graphics-performance-benchmark,7.html
at 1080p you can expect around 53 fps with a high end intel processor on BF4 (a demanding game) with the 270x. You should expect around 43 with an amd processor. I would not call that fluid.
In your price range, I would upgrade to an intel processor. AMD is going to hold the build back in next gen games and more so even further down the line.
