You might want to look at the just-released i7-4970K, which has a good speed bump on the 4770K and has VT-d and TSX fully enabled (all the other K series CPUs Intel has released have these features disabled):

As for the GPU, I'd recommend an Nvidia card with at least 2GB of VRAM. The next Houdini release beyond 13.0 will support consumer GPUs, so anything from the GEForce 700 series should suit you. The base 750 model will give adequate performance (if you can find one with 2GB VRAM), and after that it's up to you how much you want to spend on faster viewport display. For OpenCL simulations, you'll need a card with more VRAM (3GB+).
