If you aren't stuck to AMD because of a mainboard maybe suggest a i7-7700 would fit in the budget. (about 270 euro's here) Or maybe even the new i7-8700 which in dollars should hit your budget mark exactly.

Its packs more punch than needed for that GFX-Card but on the other hand you'll be future proof for quite some time.
