Hello everyone, I started playing classic WoW a couple months ago and started two accounts to help with farming/leveling. Of course after manual dual-boxing for a bit, I fell into the rabbit hole of multiboxing. Long story short, I tried 5 man multiboxing on my 9 year old PC and even though it about killed that old thing, I loved it so much I decided to build a new PC basically just to 5 man WoW lol. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to discussions on what they were building for their multiboxing setups, as they were invaluable in my build planning.
Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8GHz
Asus X570 TUF Gaming Plus (WI-FI)
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-3200
Seasonic Focus Plus Series 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold
Samsung 970 EVO+ 1TB SSD V-NAND M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe
Asus GeForce RTX 2080 Ti ROG Strix Overclocked Triple-Fan 11GB GDDR6
NZXT H510 Elite
Now, the question of what to use for my display/monitor, as I am currently running the above build on a old Asus 24" monitor. I have the capability to use a 4K monitor I think but am really on the fence about whether that's necessary. I am intrigued by the Samsung CRG9 49" ultra wide just because of the sheer audacity of that thing sitting on your desk. Also, I was looking at the Dell Alienware AW3418DW which is "on sale" for $750 at Microcenter. I would like something a bit bigger than 27", obviously for the extra real estate needed for 5 boxing WoW. Any recommendations based on my system? Any of you guys using 4K for your setups? Thanks guys.
