Since i just fubar'd my evga 780i during a 771 to 775 mod, I'm going to build a new system.

Gaming - not super high end as I play MMO's and only at 1080p max. I have streamed but not a normal thing. I don't have big OC requirements but have in the past.

Using same PS, HD and case as current.

CPU
199.99 4th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-4690K 3.5GHz LGA 1150 Processor

Motherboard Options
159.00 GA-Z97X-Gaming 7 LGA 1150 ATX
50.00 Z97 PRO4 LGA 1150 ATX
80.00 Z97 Extreme 4 LGA 1150 ATX
165.00 Z97-AR LGA 1150 Intel ATX

Ram ??? DD3 1600 ???
ideas for this?

you dont need power supply, or graphic card?

If you dont need tunderbird, you can go with the Extreme 4, good for overclocking; all the other options are also good ones, but the PRO4 is not ideal for SLI or Crossfire if you want to leave this option open.

Ram any decent brand with 1600 + cas9 or better would be fine. You might consider getting a faster ram to overclock your CPU using ram (1866 mhz or better).

SSD will depend on you budget: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-recommendation-benchmark,3269.html
