Hey guys I'd like some input on this build, it's to be around a 1000 dollar budget, i initially had planned to buy an i7-2600k cpu but after research seems like i5-2500k will run a game just as good, on which i took advantage to upgrade the graphics card instead, some of these parts were recommended by a game building website. Anyways my plan with this one is to run Guild Wars 2 on High/Ultra settings, which from what I read my graphics card should accomplish, how does everything else look?
