Hey guys, I’m looking into desktops as I have gotten into Guild Wars so much. I know practically nothing about building a PC but trying to do some research. I’ve searched around for some 600$ budget builds and the one I’ve seemed to like so far is:

CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 × 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7850 2GB Video Card
Case: Corsair 300R ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: SeaSonic 520W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Total: $604.93

At the moment, my laptop can run the game on medium settings with some spikes from map events ( not world ). And WvW with a zerg is unbearable. I would like some improvement into this PC i build but I realize only 600$ is not much going into a gaming rig.

Feel free to criticize or suggest your own builds for around 600$. Any advice helps!
Thank you~
