Basically that's my budget. All I plan on doing with the computer is playing Guild Wars 2, League of Legends, listening to music and maybe watching some 1080p streaming videos.

I would like to play GW2 with High settings and shadows off, since I don't like them anyways. Can you guys help me decide on a computer with this budget that would be able to do this? I don't plan on having more than two games on the computer at a time, so if that helps in choosing what would be needed more of and save in other parts of building, then awesome! Thanks a lot in advance!

Ditch the SSD if you need to reduce the budget. Also, ditch the CPU cooler if you don't plan to overclock..
