I'm building a PC for World of Warcraft and Star craft 2, having a hard time picking a CPU. AMD OR INTEL?

listen to the intel fan boys here haha intel is better with performance but for better performance for money get AMD and with bulldozer coming out AMD is going to win again. However, i have to agree with these people get the i5-2500k not the i7-2600k because for gaming theres no big difference. Also if you are sticking to about 850 you can just get a GTX 560 and 4GB of 1333 or 1600 whicheveryou would like. However, Upgrade that psu to a 1000 watt so you can SLI in the future and i'd either go with a GTX 560 ti or a 6870 personally i like AMD graphics better for right now just because better price/performance and the Antec 300 is an amazing case go ahead and get it! if your looking to overclock get the k version of the processor i listed if not get the regular i5-2500k as for OS go with windows 7 and u dont need that anti-static wrist watch just touch the case before anything else to ground yourself as for a motherboard id get either the ASUS p8p67 deluxe/evo/pro whichever you want or the fatl1ty pro!(sexy red motherboard) and that should do it. And when i say SLI the GTX 560's i mean make them run together with a SLI bridge i hope you know what i mean if not study it! but right now get one GTX 560ti then later down the rode get a second for almost double the performance!
