lol i did while you were making that post.

[shawngell]

So anyone have any suggestions as if those items I posted would work?
Sorry I'm at work and im very bored.

my suggestion... start small.. test the waters.. plan for bigger... determine best route for your play style along the way.

The Best Buy link is a nice system, but I would go to Velocity Micro's own site and price out a system there instead. I'm using a VM system for my additional boxed characters (2 at the moment, might add 2 more). I am considering replacing that box with a quad-core system, but first I want to see if the current one can handle 4 accounts at once.

Then again if your intention is to run 5 accounts on 5 separate boxes, the quad-core system is probably overkill, look for a system with more modest CPU and GPU options and 2GB RAM instead. For the secondary boxes I'd go to Best Buy or Circuit City and see what they have in the price range you are after. They often have decent Gateway or Dell systems for a very nice price ($350-700).

Dont buy your monitors like that mate.

Buy seperate stands and monitors, you'll save some serious cash.

so the comp i listed for the 4 additional boxes isn't suffice? Looks very like it should be able to run wow... and on those 4 comps i will minimize the settings ans have the eye candy for my main box with the quad core..

As for my monitors i like the convienance of the harnessing and making it look like it was professionally done. If i wasn't spendng money on something nice like this I would be at the local bar racking up a 100+ bar tab a night.. And if it was the weekend i usually spend 300 a night at the bar. I figure at a nice slow pace of over 3 months this 7000 system would easily be blown at the bar.

But back to my main point do the 4 other comps look ok? they look small on power consumption compared to the comp im on now and could fit practically anywhere.

And cheers to you all for giving me tips you seem like a great bunch. I hope to be up and running sometime soon and maybe come to the server where you all 5+ box at so we can shatter some alliance. My days of 1 toon doing all end raid content are over I love pvp to much.

Well the one I linked was like 524 I believe..

ok well i loaded 4 acconts onto my pc just to try and see if my comp could handle it. i had 3 minimized and one playing at full screen and was still getting 60 fps... I download the keyclone and tried tinkering with that.
I went to the round robin thing and hit keystroke 1,2,3,4 and i click on the opther applications that are runiing in keyclone and they showed up on each application. But when i press 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 nothing happens with the rest of the chars. I tired to purchase a full version and it takes me to a broken link pay pal site.

Any suggestions on anything? i thought i was so close and now im going to lose sleep over it lol. but it was nice seeing 4 locks run around simultaniously.
