CPU should be out next week and pushes the 6800K in most games. Socket FM2+ for future APU upgrades. RAM is on sale, runs stable at 1.5 volts and a speed of 1866 MHz. Power supply is a little overkill, but can't beat the price and can add a dedicated GPU later. Components are all relatively premium.

EditL Switch the CPU out for an A10 7850K.

That's all you need. Just switch this CPU out with the A8 7600.

If you want to run World of Warcraft on medium settings, 1080p, over 40+ FPS, you will not need a video card. The 7850K has integrated graphics capable of emulating the HD7750, especially after overclocking. If your computer is far enough away from your router where you can't run a wired connection, you will have to buy a wireless USB adapter for about 10 bucks (Amazon, NewEgg).
