I'm not sure if this would be the right forum to post this in, so I'm sorry if its not. But I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on parts to build 3 or possibly 4 slave systems for dirt cheap that can run WoW at it's minumal settings. I'm not looking for anything fancy for them, just fast enough to handle WoW. I've got the monitors covered, but could use a little help on the pc parts. I'd prefer 4x micro atx boards so i can cram them into small shuddle boxes and eventually into 1 big custom built box. no onboard video. sound is not req on slaves. nothing used/referbished, new only please. right now i have 1 rig i run my main on. with access to 4 accounts. I can settle with only 3 slaves, I have a friend i run with all the time that fills the last slot. any input would be great.

check out the threads in the hardware forum, there's some very nice info with links to newegg and everything with specced out primary / secondary machines. :)

I thought about doing that, but WoW really isn't all that demanding. If I had to start over again, I'd do the same thing and just build one high-end box to run 5 instances over two large monitors. Much easier to set up, and runs 5x WoW fine.
