The i5-4690K is performing well at 3.5Ghz. I haven't tested it with the current setup, but I have some Firestrike results to compare. This rating almost matches the GTX 960's performance for its price.

These figures are impressive. I haven’t used my i5-4690K (4.5 GHz) with the Evga GTX 970 (stock) for testing, and I don’t have that machine available right now. However, if you’d like, I can share some Firestrike results for comparison.
That performance nearly matches the GTX 960 in value.
I’d really appreciate seeing those Firestrike numbers.
Thanks
Keep in mind this setup uses an OC'd CPU paired with a standard graphics card.
Keep in mind this setup uses an OC'd CPU, but the stock graphics card is provided here. I tested Firestrike and achieved a score of 10351, which is better than 86% of all results. My next concern is how much the overclocked CPU (i5 4690k) affects these scores, and what overclocking adjustments would be needed. As a beginner in this area, your guidance is very helpful.
