    If you could build a dream machine to play GW2...

    ...what components would you use?

    I know GW2 (and MMO's in general) are CPU intensive so it'd have to be a beast in that department... not sure whether O/Cing is a good idea for GW although my current rig is - at 4GHZ.

    Love to hear your thoughts!

    I have would want a tri-monitor setup for sure, that's got to be a lot of fun.
    So an i7 Hexacore plus Xfire 7970s Water cool only the CPU
    Solid state drive and Windows 8, nothing else too crazy needed.

    EDIT And yes Skid 3 monitors are the *$#% but took me like 3 hours to take the bezels off and anouther $300 for a mounting system, you also need a *$#% load of room.
