only buy gp5 items if you feel you're not getting as farmed up as your lane opponent (or a support or jungler who passes kills off to laners).

Deathcap is a great item to get for Swain, while he's a tankier AP carry he's still supposed to deal a lot of damage and there's nothing better than deathcap to help him do that.
