I want to build a gaming computer for under $800, I want to be able to mainly run World of Warcraft at its full potential, and of course other PC games at their full settings like Oblivion. If anyone can build me a list of the perfect parts for the computer and prices that would be awesome.

Answer
Maximum PC recently ran an article on a $667 gaming PC, which should meet your needs nicely. The article even includes step-by-step instructions on assembling the components if you need help with that. Link: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/features/how_build_kick-ass_gaming_rig_under_700

What Components Should I Use For A Custom Gaming PC?

Xenon

Okay. So I want to build my first computer, typically for gaming because my laptop sucks. I need to ask you people, who are probably smarter than me, what components I should use. I have already decided on my RAM (2 Corsair Vengeance Blue 16 GB DDR3 SDRAM Dual Channel Memory Kits), but I want to know what CPU I should use, what the best motherboard is for it, what graphics card I should get, and so on. So here are my 'guidelines', if you may.
Graphics Card: Under $800, can handle some good graphics (Portal 2, Battlefield 3, so on)
CPU: Preferably Intel, since AMD runs really hot. Under $600.
Hard Drive: I would like an SSD, but they're quite expensive. Areound 750GB-1TB or bigger, under $500.
Optical Drive: Not as needed, but if you could recommend some good ones that would be cool.
Power Supply: Nothing special, I guess. If there are good ones that can boost performance that would be great.
If there is anything I missed, please tell me and I'll look up some.
I didn't miss the monitor, mouse, keyboard, and case, I already know what I want for those.

Answer
GPU - GTX 780

CPU - 4770K

SSD - Crucial M500 960GB SATA 2.5" 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter) Internal Solid State Drive CT960M500SSD1 - $650

UNDER $500 - you can only get up to 512gb SSD at newegg.

PSU - 850W corsair (for SLI setup in the future) or corsair 650W PSU for a system with a single GTX 780.
