Planned computer specs:

CPU: i5 4590 Socket 1150
Harddisk: WD 2 TB
Power Supply: Corsair 750W Modular or your suggestion
Monitor: TBC
Motherboard: HELP!
Video Card: R9 270 2GB
Ram: Corsair Vengence 2x4GB Kit
SSD: SAMSUNG 850 EVO MZ-75E250B/AM 2.5" 250GB SATA III 3-D Vertical Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Much appreciated if you could recommend me a good bang for buck PSU and motherboard.

Some extra information FYI:
  • Not an overclocker
  • Gaming involved
  • Will rely on Wifi connection so prefer onboard wifi capability (unless a separate wireless adapter outperforms by a lot)

Well, I like Gigabyte as they have solid caps, dual BIOS and a durable board. Consider that Asus or EVGA with a 1150 socket.

I have read that the Samsung 850 has problems as was the 840.

Not sure what country you are in or if you want SLI or Crossfire support. Here you go, best bang for your buck! LOL

Motherboards that support WIFI are Mini ITX. I would just get a WIFI PCI card.

PSU is fine, a little more wattage than necessary, but good for future proofing.

My favorite LGA1150 board happens to be the Asus Z97-A currently, I've done 2 builds with it for friends.

PSU: You'd be safe with a Corsair CX600M but a semi-modular above 700w would be good if you want to add another card in the future.
 
GIGABYTE GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5

PSU - CX600m should enough if u run single card

Apart from WiFi, u can consider Powerline instead
