[s]okay sina, i'm pretty sure its been more than an hour! lets go! post this puppy before i drool my bottom lip off! lol!![/s]

Couple questions for you, as this seems to be a great way to start:
1. How well do 5 clients perform in busy areas where lag would be prevalent on a crappier system ie dalaran, 25 man raids where lots of stuff is goin down, busy instances where lots of aoe is going on? Only reason i ask is because some of the newer non superduper geeks(no offense im a nerd at heart) who dont know squat about the importance and intricacies of computer building, but would love to build/buy a system capable of handling our performance needs without trial and error need to know(woo hoo go run on sentence ftw!)

2. Are we looking at a cost of around 2000 to 2200? I'm hoping for 12 gig and the "smoother" feel of load times and gameplay as i'm really wanting to be able to raid with my guild on my 4 box team... is this gonna be achieveable via a 2 monitor setup(2 22 inch hp widescreen monitors **monitors already purchased**) for around that price?

3. if we have a positive response from 1 and 2, when /how soon do i get my new baby!

4. cooling issues? i play upwards of 7 hours or more a day some days.... will my baby die of heat stroke? and what kinda colors for the guts can we choose? =)


ROMG! Hello money, meet pocket.... welcome to hell! BURN BEESH BURN!
1) Dalaran is going around 25-30 (using an my 7200 rpm raid edition drive) at worst. I have seen it over 50+ before but it just depends on the resolution you play on. If you want to play it safe and pull 40+ i would play at 1280x1024 with everything turned up except shaders. Looks great and doesnt slow the system down one bit.

2) YES i just completed some heroics and i have raided with 4 in nax 25 man without any issues. In fact i get better frames in instances with raids then i do in some zones. ( IE DAL WG) Yes 2 22' will not be a problem.

you are SPOT ON, on the price. More info soon cant disclose much

3) it will be up today i promise. We usually take 2-3 weeks after payment to be at your door step.

4) no cooling issues as i have left it running for 72 hours as our standered burn in. Gut colors are blue, if that needs to be changed we MIGHT be able to work something out.
