Multiboxed WoW is not CPU limited. I've never seen my Q9550@3.6GHz loaded higher than 80%, usually it is around 50-60%. I'm running 5 box with 2560x1600 res on main screen and 1280x1024 secondary screen, and the ONLY thing that raises my fps is lowering graphic settings. I have 4870 1Gb and even though my slaves are running at lowest possible res with lowest details (slightly lowered high settings for main), GPU load is always at 100%. I'd say that getting more GPU power is more important.
I've visited Dalaran and this place is a real test for your multibox hardware. I had to lower graphic settings to get decent fps, but CPU load still is around 80-90% with rare short 100% spikes. I tried to overclock cpu up to 4GHz, but havent seen any real performance upgrade. The only way to get higher FPS for me is to lower graphic settings, so I still dont think that WoW is CPU limited even in Dalaran.
specs would be nice
