    alot of pepole having same problem

    one thing i did notice tho is that when i start WOW, the entire load is being sent to 1 card only. card 2 and 3 are at 10% and card 1 is at 99% all the time.

    this is messed.
    .

    Well then, try different drivers. Don't just stand there looking stupid.

    Glad to see the OP fixed the issue... however, I did LOL at this line.

    Yay.

    further progress.

    I got Instant Swap working now and get 60fps.

    What I did was move my ATI cards over to different slots. I had then in slots 2,3,4 and was thinking maybe that causes issues.

    So I moved them to 1,2,3 and everything seems normal now.

    the only thing bottlenecking now is hard drive access. rejoice.

    but seems my main ATI card still does most of the work which I cant figure out

    thanks for all the help. i hope it stays stable.

    An SSD (and you can get one sufficient for this for around $100) will cure your hard drive problems. My system - as I said way way less powerful than yours - can load 5 players in Dalaran at prime time in a total of 3-5 seconds when I have the group hearth.

    No idea about your video cards... Is it possible to manually configure an install to say "Use card 1" and then make multiple copies of the install, telling those to use different cards? Or does the system usually automagically spread the load over multiple cards, just not with WoW or ISBoxer?

    I think IsBoxer is preventing the display being shared over the cards.

    When I tried loading 5 copies of WoW it worked differently much faster.

    i ordered 2 64GB Crucial C300 SSD drives.

    waiting for them
    i was looking at the PCI Express SSD drive but 2 64GB SSD C300 are faster.

    I believe this 64GB version of the C300 has issues with write speed, around 2-4x slower than comparable disks. The read speed is quite good though, if you have a 6gb/sec SATA port.

    Holy Crap. 2-4x Slower

    I read reading reviews on Anandtech and Tomshardware. they mention its best selection right now.

    i hope its not crap!

    I bought two so i'll get 650MB/s thruput

    I got 2 6Gb ports.
