Over 9000??? If you can affor the copy of wow, you can run them...

and i would like to point out the ati cards are fail compared to the 2xx series...

That system is pretty similar to mine and I can do 5-boxing with no problems and lots of system resources to spare.

I don't mind the ati cards at all tho i would go with nivida if i was buying again as of now it does the job.

With 6GB of ram, you'll be able to handle 5 clients of wow without issues.

If you want to run a lot of background applications, or desire more then 5 clients, you'll probably need to upgrade your ram. You could run 10 clients on 6GB of ram, but it will definitely slow your play down, by a significant margin. The general rule of thumb is: 1GB for the OS, plus 1GB per wow client.

The rest of your system is overkill, for what wow currently requires of a system.

You can do easily 5 WoWs with that, and depending on what you are doing in-game, potentially up to 10.

A general rule of thumb when asking what you can do with multiboxing and the i7: "The answer is always yes"
