Advice on CPU and GPU for new build

[Kaori Cpu]

This is my 3rd computer build for gaming, but my most recent was about 2 years ago. I am somewhat out of the loop when it comes to whats good for a price right now. I use Newegg.com for my source of parts and I am looking for advice. I am getting back into WOW and I need to build a better computer than my last one. CPU was Phenom 955 BE with a MSI 460 Hawk edition. I am looking to Get an INTEL CPU and the GPU doesnt matter but I have somewhat of a budget. I am trying to stick in between $150-230 for CPU and $100 - 200 for the GPU....anyone recommend the greatest bang for my buck while playing on the best settings for MOP in WOW?

Get i5 3570k and 2gb hd 7850.it would be perfect choice.it is in your budget.

from this http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-4.html you could see that i5 3570K is your best bet for that price. And GPU would be GTX 560 Ti or HD 6870 even it's not the best

Here's a GTX 660 as an alternative to that HD 7850 2GB for less than $3 more if you want.

ZOTAC ZT-60901-10M GeForce GTX 660 2GB ($195 after rebate)
