1x Mage prepping for Cata

[Kawasa]

Can I put a Intel Xeon e5440 processor into a desktop motherboard AND having it fully functional?
like say this random one

Or do I have to be SPECIFICALLY a server motherboard? I heard that they weren't for gaming tho...

And what does Eyefinity do exactly? Is that what allows you guys to have more than 2 monitors?
What is Crossfire and Sli?

Muhaahahaha my sexy new comp is coming to fruition.

without knowing your motherboard this question cannot be answered.

eyefiinty is an ATI multi monitor solution that allows you to run 3 (or 6) monitors from one graphics card.

crossfire and SLi are ATi & Nvidia's solutions for running more than one graphics card in your machine. (you will get no benefit form this in WOW, but woill help greatly in other games, ie first person shooters)

as for your question re joined monitors, look at a company that produce multiple monitor stands (i got mine from here)
