I don't think the mobo has that much life in it for the more demanding games.  IMO, I would try the new AMD A10 series and mobo (due out in a few weeks for us mortals) with Win8 (I know evil, but M$ is about to release a direct download home version for about $60 in the very near future) and see if that runs GW2 at acceptable speed.  If not, then you are going to have to get a beefy AMD gfx card (crossfire will work with the APU and the gfx card).  A10 is fairly reasonable for bang:buck ratio: http://youtu.be/JcA9W1xb0Cs

The new AMD A10-5800k is slated to sell for around $130 bucks, is quad core and has integrated radeon 7660.


Is there a date announced when the cpu/mobo become available to the home builder?  I heard it was set for sometime in October but I haven't read anything recent on a concrete date.
