Why do you recommend DDR3 1600? What's wrong with 1066, which is exactly at what i7's are rated to run at?

It makes more sense to build a good 5-10 client computer and learn to multibox on a 5x team right now. You don't level all 25 at once, anyhow. You'd level them in smaller teams and combine them once at max level.

I have to echo others' sentiments, as well. There is no point in 25-boxing. All the PvE content you could care to do is achievable with a 10-character team and the gear rewards are identical.
Exactly this. The more characters you add to a team the less efficient it becomes. To also note, I highly doubt you could
build a computer that would handle 25 instances of WoW like you want it to. I can load about 11 game instances on my
Q9550 with my main on Ultra settings and the other 10 looking at the ground with tiny screens and the lowest graphics.
Sure, there is newer hardware out there now but if you have to jam 24 other screens somewhere while boxing a PvE raid,
how are you going to see who is standing in fire and who isn't?

Even building a dual CPU system is a complete waste of money to just play WoW on, especially when it would cost
probably close to $5000 at least. You could easily build multiple systems for less than $5000 for the sole purpose of just
running slave screens on.
