It totally depends on what you are going to use the pc for. Is it just gaming or you going to do video rendering, streaming etc. Also if it a gaming pc what games would that be.
There is a sticky also that will help with all those questions

Two things:

1) Intel is recommended for gaming at that price level. I'll leave it to the people more familiar with Danish/EU vendors to make specific suggestions.

2) Do you need all that storage? I'd recommend cutting back to improve your SSD/HDD and CPU.

Don't build AMD not worth it! Get an I5 gen 3-4 and start with an 80+ rated power supply for graphics card get a GTX 760-770 2gb gddr5!

You'd be better off with something like this, especially for wow. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about your postage rates etc so i'm not sure if it'll fit your budget in practice but in theory it works out fine. (edit:forgot to put an ssd in there but with such a tight budget it's kind of hard to recommend one. Better off adding it later.)

Yes listen to Jake.

[MasterNewbie]

A caviar green as a primary drive is a horrible suggestion. Also, I'd suggest getting a non-modular PSU to save a little cash. Additionally, Newegg and (maybe) Microcenter are not available as vendors for the OP.

Just to reiterate:

I'll leave it to the people more familiar with Danish/EU vendors to make specific suggestions.

I'd have a look at something like this if you're less interested in Jake's build:
