Isn't it amazing how you always say "I'll never build a PC again" and yet eventually, even many years down the line, you always do?

Anyway I want to build a couple of PC's to play Guild Wars 2, that's pretty much it, but I want them to play it at max settings at 1920x1200 without skipping a beat, I spent too long with WoW turning things down or off.

Tell me if these components will do it:

Intel Core i5 3570k / 3.4 GHz processor
Gigabyte GV R785OC-2GD - graphics card - Radeon HD 7850 - 2 GB
Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H - 1.0 - motherboard - ATX - LGA1155 Socket - Z77
Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz
OCZ ZS series 650w
Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive
Antec One


And if not what do I need to up to do it? More graphics? More CPU? More/better Ram?
 
Im running it on same motherboard and cpu but with a different brand of ram and using onboard graphics as Im not getting my HD7950 till end of month. Not got everything maxed out but its still pretty good and runs really smooth.
 
I would get a 7950/7870 if you want to average 60 fps. I would go for a 7950 if you can spare the money. Got my information from here
Only thing is that uses the beta client and there may have been some hardware optimizations since then.
I would also go for a slightly smaller PSU a 550W will power most graphics cards atm for sure and 500W would probably be fine.
