My system is fairly old, but was wondering if I could get by with it.

C2D E8400 overclocked of course
EVGA GTX260
8gb DDR2 1600 ram
64gb SSD for WoW - using one copy of a wow install for now

My main monitor is a 42" tv with a secondary 22" for the other 3 windows or whatever. Can ISBoxer set the graphics quality for the slave windows or no? Like have the main windows at decent settings, while others are at lowest settings, but if I swap the window, have that one then go to decent settings, etc?

And ISBoxer looks a lot more in depth than keyclone, what one do ya'll suggest?

That system should be able to manage 4 clients, though you will need to drop settings to minimum and probably avoid populated cities.

ISBoxer saves separate settings for each character in your character set so, yes, it will remember them separately.

You can set the graphic quality however you like, and the virtualization of the configuration file will remember it.

You can even run a mapped key, which raises settings on the active window.
And lowers settings on the other windows.
So when you switch from one toon to another, the current toon has the eye candy.

I think I'm going to just get 4 starter editions first just to test it out and see how well my system will run 4, then do the whole RAF thing and level em seriously.

I was interested in 4-5 DKs for PvP :P

I'd either go with four.
Or with four DK's and a Healer of choice.

I was never able to get a healing class down just with 1 account, doubt I'd be able to do it multiboxing lol. Maybe I just hate healing a lot. I've always been a tank/melee so I think I'll do 4 DKs.

Still going to do trails first to get isboxer and all worked out, etc.

So, why isn't it letting me add 4 starter editions to my 2nd bnet account?
