I made a new pc build, looking to start buying items around christmas, it probably will change considering prices dropping but the only item i see changing is maybe the i3 going up to the i5 if i can find one on sale.

You forgot to add the KB and mouse.

Diablo is not a hard game to run at all. It could run easily on an APU.

If you could go over, I'd get Buxtyy's build then add a KB and mouse with it.

A lot of it is personal preference. It can be, but 1 RAM stick is just fine. You could always add another for 16gb and so on.

Fine build. I'd invest in an SSD ASAP. Also, if you can spend an extra $30, I'd get a 380 instead.

Should run Diablo 3 just fine though. Super easy to run.

The 270x is not better than 380. Please dont listen to your friend.

Never played Guild Wars 2 and never heard of it, so I wouldnt know. A quick google search should reveal the minimum specs.
