    Default Planning an upgrade, boxer details and current to planned new machine details added.

    My boxer details:

    Play from: Healer perspective.
    5 x dedicated boxer
    2 melee
    2 ranged
    1 healer

    Current performance in cata zones:
    Slaves (forced 10FPS, low quality, 1920x1080)
    Main (normal quality, 1920x1080)
    - registers 30-40 fps, 20 fps in Ogrimmar

    Isboxer: 1 region, stacked, swap.
    Addons: Recount, DBM, Isboxer, Mogit

    My current rig:


    Processor: Q9650
    MB: EVGA 780i
    Ram: 8GB
    HDD: WD Black 1TB
    Video: 2x 295 GTX (non-sli, dedicated physx 2ndary)
    OS: Windows 7 Pro
    IO: G510, Evoluent left handed edition
    Case: Antec 900


    My planned rig:

    Processor: I7 2600
    MB: ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3
    Ram: 16GB
    Primary HDD: Crucial 256GB SSD
    Secondary HDD: WD Black 1TB
    Video: 2x 295 GTX (non-sli, dedicated physx 2ndary)
    OS: Windows 7 Pro
    IO: G510, Evoluent left handed edition
    Case: Antec 900


    Now the questions.

    1. Will the new rig be able to handle (better than 20fps) high settings on the main and 20fps on the slaves?
    2. Will I need to water cool this thing at stock speeds?
    3. Will it bottleneck at the GPU (single card) ?
    4. Will adding a secondary 1920x1080 display hinder performance too much? I don't want slaves on it. Just a free window.

    Thanks in advance. This upgrade will cost me approximately $1,000 as of the listings.
