If you have a 770, switch to the Intel chip. The only case where performance increases when using an AMD cpu is with a AMD graphics card via the Mantle API. Also, if you plan on changing chip, likely need a good mobo. Consider both choices as there are plenty of reviews out there. Look for compatibility of your current memory(DDR3 presumably) vs choice mobo to go with your i5-4690k. Also, if you plan to overclock, look to either closed loop water cooling solutions and also a good board to do it on. I'm sure there's plenty of OC'ers that have done so using the i5-4690k.
Si ta des questions n'hesite pas amigo.
Also, make sure to disable core parking once switching over to an Intel chip.
