That's a decent card, but you won't be playing many games with max settings with it. Considering your somewhat "weak" CPU in gaming use, I'd go for a little bit better graphics card. Just make sure your CPU wont bottleneck the GPU.
Okay, an outdoor raid with a world event. I'd guess it would take a lot of processing power, but 16GB of RAM? Just no. Do I really need to download Rift, go to a private server, find a place full of people and a world event and then check how much RAM it uses? Btw, I played in the Rift beta for umm, 30 mins? Damn the game was horrible. Like WoW but with just horrible looking "realistic" graphics.
And no, I haven't played WoW on a dial-up. I have played it on a 0.5/0.5MB connection though. I had 100-200 latency, not bad for a MMO. And I don't think that if you don't have a dial-up you have "an excellent internet connection". Sure, a good solid connection is preferred, but is not necessary in a MMO. Having 150+ ping in a FPS game would be a problem.

The biggest problem of the human race is that they cannot accept that there is nothing after death.
