Depending on how high your graphics are set using DX11 I think you will be coming close to the 4GB systemQuote:

With low graphics in Wotlk with the same spec (except for Micro Athlon X2 3.2Ghz and Mobo GA-M68M-S2P) each client of wow only use 300-500 MB System RAM. But i ask beacause i dont know if in Cata Memory reqs are differents
No, I would say it is about the same. So you're looking at about 2.5GB for your 5 clients and then 1GB for theQuote:

DX11 uses much more video RAM than DX9 does because it's shinier and fancier but will most likely give you
better frame rates until you start running out of video memory in which case... you may see artifacts, probably
a large drop in FPS, and/or stuttering.
Ok, thank you =)
Definitely get more memory.
Definitely more RAM.
If you haven't already bought the hardware and can afford spending a little more, you'll get MUCH better performance out of an Intel setup, especially the i7-2600K, which OC's easily.
I'd also recommend Windows 7 64-bit over XP 64-bit.
