Budget Gaming PC advice

Hello,

So I had a whole post written out and then tried to post a link to the build and it erased it, so boo to the newbie.  Let's try this again.

After 10+ years of gaming on non-gaming systems and the like, I've decided to finally commit to buying a gaming PC.  The catch is that I'm on a tight budget of about $1400, and some of that budget needs to be allocated to a monitor since I don't currently own one.   

Obviously I want the PC to run games smoothly.  Currently I play games such as Star Conflict, WOW, SW:TOR, Diablo 3, and several others on Steam.  I want to know I can run these, as well as newer games in high settings without issue.  (I'm tired of going into a game and first switching everything to low and very low).  The PC also needs to be upgradable.  Since I can't get the best video card now, I can upgrade down the line.  So usage will be primarily games, internet, playing movies and music. 

The build I have been kicking around is as follows (Note I do have a gaming keyboard and gaming mouse)

Thanks in advance!
