you dont need an alienware computer to run wows and you dont even need dedicated graqphics card. You are talking about running 5 instances on one monitor and unless you can read seriously small print and dont mind squinting then it might be playable. My suggestion is to get at least 2 monitors and preferably 3. I use 2 24" monitors and run 4 instances on one machine and my one main on the other. when you use keyclone to divide up the screen into 2 or more instances on the same screen it scales the resolution down to nothing so you dont need a dedicated graphics card on that machine. I use a micro atx board with onboard ati3200 graphics and it runs all four wows fine. the main thing you want is ram. I use 8gigs and a quad core in that machine and it will load dalaran up on all four wows at exactly the same time. wow has graphics that are so outdated almost any pos computer can run it at lower resolutions. as far as running 5 on that machine it will do it with no problem but you better get at least a 40 inch screen tv to use as a monitor if you want to enjoy iy at all.
