I'll re-iterate this thread:
WAA WAA MY COMPUTER IS FASTER AND MANUFACTURER X IS BETTER THAN Y!
Now, when you build the rig, start from the parts which you will be interacting with, e.g. the displays, mouse and keyboard. Display real-estate is your first concerd, running 4 clients on 2x24" means that you run 1 client at a 12" screen with 960x540 resolution. Is this enough? If not, upgrade the monitos to 2560x1600 or buy 4 in total. Going for 4 monitors either requires SLI from nVidia or eieinfinity from ATi. If you go for 2 displays, you can just place them on your desk quite easily, but 4 monitors require a stand of some sort, these go from ú60 upwards depending on the weight limits. Also your displays need to support the VESA mounting standard.
Keyboard and mouse should be the most comfortable ones you've ever met because you still will be using them to input data, a ú5 SUPERLASERMOUSE isn't going to cut it, consider upgrading.
After you've done all the ergonomic thinking and designing, come back to us with the question about what rig you should be buying.
Also, one EvE client eats with HDD caching a total of 800-900 megs of ram, caching on it's about 1,5-1,8 gigs, so you need 8 gigs at least.

Ok thanks for the info so far I would be willing to spend ú2500 inc tv/monitors but that's if I need to, I have never seen the game with a great PC and still enjoy it so....
you crazy assed pommy, keep that figure under your hat, you shouldn't need to spend anything like that even with 3 24"Monitors.
Good luck & remember buying a PC that is overpowered is just a waste of $$, get a good mid ranged setup & make it sing.
Here's my setup :D (I wish)
5x1 Eyefinity Awesome
*Good monitors eat ú1500 from that budget.
