GW2 is extremely cpu heavy (world vs world). The a6-5400k is going to choke and die on it (its a dual core).

Strongly suggest you try to increase your budget to fit an i3 in there (as mmorpg's tend to be singltthreaded and IPC dependent).

On a $500 budget

Should work quite well.

You might want to consider dropping the RAM down to 4 GB and using the money to get a 650 ti.
