Heh, you really don't know where I work do you?

You want to spend serious bucks on the newest gear... I understand that. I've gone down that road before.

But, you'll soon find a point of diminishing returns and the Core i7 won't be the silver bullet that you are looking for. I know, I'm staring at a few Core i7 cpus/mobos at work and a shiny new Falcon Northwest machine. Great for video rendering, but guess what folks still laggy in Shatt because of ... you got it ... a hard drive.

Good chip, yup. But multiboxing WoW isn't CPU limited, especially with regular quad-core. You may get a few frames per second increase. If this justifies spending the thousands of bucks on a new machine, then more power to you.
Actually pricing up a quad core with similar mobo and ram is more than the i7 I want to get. Another thing is I plan to buy the intel MLC drive from newegg when I get my comp just for my wow folder.
