I hope your parents like power bills.

Put $2000 toward one PC that can run 5 instances of the game.. then get an old machine that CAN play WoW for a friend to borrow..

[Fear The Wrath]

well its either
5x[$500 per computer]
OR
1x[~$650 main computer]
1x[~$750 alt computer]
OR
1x[~$1000 computer running all 5 WoW]
edit:
can anyone list pros/cons?

edit2:add 3rd option

[beyond-tec]

5x[$500 per computer]

con: very expensive (hardware + energy)
pro: full hardware boxing possible
pro: one pc crashes, one char disconnects not your whole group

1x[~$650 main computer]
1x[~$750 alt computer]

pro: main computer doesn't lag because of the wow instances because they run on the alt computer.
pro: affordable
con: software boxing
con: alt pc crashes, 4 toons disconnected.

1x[~$1000 computer running all 5 WoW]

pro: cheap
con: max. 2 monitors -> not enough space on the monitor to show your main + alts.
con: pc crashes, your whole group disconnects
con: in capitals very laggy
con: software-boxing

[Fear The Wrath]

well im considering the one computer... i got all i need on newegg ~$1300 [that cut my original price in half...] i dont care about crashes... if one char dies i let them all die... haha if i have to run back.. why not have the whole group? the more the merrier!

why would things be so laggy? what can i do to reduce this?
