Looking to 10-15 box, need some input on my specs!

[Chalked]

Hi guys, I just made this account (because between all my emails I didn't know which one was for this site) and I just wanted to say that at the computer club in highschool I was the odd one out. My computer knowledge is pretty much I know what one looks like. So I'm looking for some advice. :)

Currently I plan on doing about 15 boxs to kill some dragons in World of Warcraft.

My specs right now are looking to be:

Intel Core i7-3930K 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/intel-cpu-bx80619i73930k)

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr212e20pkr2)

Asus P9X79 LE ATX LGA2011 Motherboard (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-p9x79le)

Corsair XMS 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3-1333 Memory (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cmx32gx3m4a1333c9)

EVGA GeForce GTX 680 4GB Video Card (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-04gp42686kr)

Ok those are what I plan on buying in the coming months. As I'm not to sure what I'm doing since 10+ boxing is a new thing for me. I'd just like to know if those specs could run 15 boxs for killing some dragons. Now if it cannot, how many can this PC run?

Also a side question to this is I have a fairly powerful gaming laptop that I can currently 5-7 box on right now. I found this USB KVM switch (logear GCS661U USB Laptop KVM Switch) which is said to be a KVM switch for my laptop (ha hence the name). Anyway with that KVM switch would it be possible to just throw 10 boxes on the main PC and 5 on the laptop then just hook them together and configure with ISboxer?


Thank you all so much for your help!

I would swap the Corsair XMS for some G.Skill X-Series @ 1600 (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f31600c9q32gxm) (matches the motherboard color scheme better anyway >_>).

Also, if you're not buying these parts within the next week, keep your eye out for the 4GB model of the GTX 770 when it becomes available. If you haven't purchased the GTX 680 4GB by then, the GTX 770 will be a better option (as long as it is the 4GB model).

What does the storage situation look like in this build? SSD?


Now if it cannot, how many can this PC run?
This is entirely dependent on how fancy you want your graphics to look in each client; but you should have no issues running 15 somewhere around medium-ish settings depending on how much you want to fine tune it.

Yes... And no need for a physical switch anymore these days, just go download Input Director (http://www.inputdirector.com/) on each machine and configure it.

Is this the video card you're referencing?

I'm thinking of SSD yes, but I didn't include it because I wasn't sure if it was relevant to the actual boxing part.

Also thank you so much for your help!

ssd is nice. I have had two go poopy on me, but i bought them about a year ago.

Hey guys I haven't purchased any of the items on this list, but I was wondering if the I7 4770k can handle 10 boxing + streaming? If so at what levels?

Also how much ram is needed for that too, 32g?

Lastly the new 770 gtx 4g what will that get me?

-Thanks guys!

(I'm in the tight spot because the new 4930ks are going to release next month and I think I'll do a new build on Black Friday. So I just need something to get me by really so I don't want to spend any serious money until new parts come out (Aka 4930k).
