Why get the 4690 when a 4460 is pretty much the same and cheaper, or why not go Skylake?
anyway, what case do you have so when know what form factor you need.

It's a shame you still refuse to listen to help to be honest, but whatever, we tried.
You'd have been far better off with what I suggested already;

Upgrading to Haswell instead of sticking with SB or just grabbing an IB i5/Xeon was stupid, especially since your GPU sucks. Should've just stuck with your i3, which is fine, bought a V2 Xeon/i5-3***, or went with Skylake if you were getting a new motherboard anyway.

So you spent like $750 then. You'd have been better off with a Xeon E3-1240 V2 and an R9 380. Would have been a good $150+ cheaper for a higher end CPU, and better GPU. You could have actually gotten an R9 390, or GTX 970 or something within budget as well as an 8 core Xeon.
If the i5 is fine for you, you could've spent even less and picked up an old SB/IB i5 for like $250 or so, probably, instead of $350 for the Xeon.
