Request some help with spec info from 5 boxers

My only concerns about the i7 setup was that 6 gig of ram wouldn't be enough to 5box. 12 gig of ram in a i7 setup is too pricey for my taste and the i7 setup doesn't offer room for future ram upgrade, since all 3 memory slots are used.

I see 6 DIMM slots for RAM.

Silly me, I assumed there was only 3 slots, after checking the image you posted, there is clearly 6 slots.

Thanks!

yes, there are a few i7 boards with less than 6 slots, they should all be marked" Avoid at all cost"

My rig consists of
i7 (forget the model and speed)
radeon 5870
12 gigs of tripple channel ram
two hdds setup in raid
among other basic things

My computer has never gone over 23 degrees celcius inside.... and i've had no AC on in 90 degree weather recently. I run all 5 windows at highest settings and the only place i do not get 60 fps is in dalaran... i play one of the highest population servers in the world though so it may be less on other servers.

I've also played crysis on full settings while having 5 wows up and it ran perfectly.... so anything close to my system will be great. I overdid it though,. It handles everything great though and i wouldn't trade it for anything right now.

congratulations on never truly taxing your system.
