Comparing Computers

I am wondering your opinion on witch computer will be best for me. I plan on using it for botting and wan't to run as many as possible. The two computers I am comparing are about the same price ($1500)

 

You could, in my opinion, just build your own custom rig. You could probably create your own rig for around 900$ that smokes those rigs out the water.

 

Get the second one.
6gig ram is enough. And if you're gonna go liquid cooling know what your doing, it's a lot easier with air.

 

Yeah if I knew how to put together a computer lol.

I am not sure what you mean by that but I am not building it, the computer comes assembled so I don't think Ill have any problems.

 

Its pretty simple, just look up some guides online, and most of it, you can look at it and see where it goes just by guessing. For already built computers, i recommend www.newegg.com as they are having sales right now.

 

If you were botting hardcore for money, like you told me, I would recommended this setup :

Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit operating system
Intel Core i7 950 3.06 GHz Processor
Dual Radeon 5770's in Crossfire mode
12GB DDR3 Memory
1TB Hard Drive

The 16GB Memory allows you to run more applications, such as botting clients.
Upgrade the fans/cooling system, so you don't overheat as easily.
When you buy it, make sure to clean the fans of dust and debris so it runs at maximum performance, and allows you to utilize the computer longer without it breaking down.

Good luck.

 

12 gigs is unnecessary, It will help you run more bots, but I have a secondary computer with 6 gigs and I can run over 14 bots and still play RS legit with no lag.

with your processor and graphics card's you should be fine on the performance aspect.

Id go with the liquid cooling one, since I have a problem with cooling. My cheap rig has an i5 proc that runs at around 75 degrees celcius when fully loaded (around 12-15 Autofighter pro's). I can't even overclock it for fear of it overheating since 75 is already way too hot. Liquid cooling is a must when maxing out your hardware.

 

Solution to your problem, by an after market heatsink, Liquid is not needed in any cases unless you are doing extreme overclocking really.. I've seen people get there i7 920's to like 4GHz on air(not with stock heatsink, they suck )

 

Maybe you could help me pick out a computer. Theres a website called CyberPower and you can pretty much build your own rig and they will ship it to you assembled but I am not sure what I should get really.

 

This. 12 gigs, what do you need that for? Also the cooling system would best to have.

 

To run more bots?

 

RAM isn't everything... Unless you're grave and want to run like 25-30, you don't need that much. 6GB is sufficient.

And since you're looking to bot multiple accounts at the same time continuously, yes, it would be best to get the one with the cooling system, though personally I would just get a custom build. Doesn't matter if you're a geek or not. There are tons of geek sites out there waiting to help you select individual parts, and in the long run, you'll learn something rather useful.

 

I do wan't to run 25-30 bots and I don't really know a lot about computers I figured I'd use www.cyberpower.com , they let you pick a computer then you can add/change stuff. That or build my own but I have never built one so I'd worried that ill screw something up.

 

If you don't even try, how will you even know? Everyone's had their first build, and not many have screwed up.

Understanding how powerful each component is and what it is compatible with isn't really hard. Reviews are generally 20-30 pages. Think of it as reading a chapter on a book; doesn't take too much time.

Here's an example of a review: http://www.guru3d.com/article/radeon-6950-6970-review/18

The charts on that page are extremely easy to understand. Do you understand terms such as AA and FPS?

 

FPS is frames per second? Not sure about AA. Like I said I really don't know much about computers.

 

This is the main problem of some people... They are interested in buying computers, but don't want to learn how it all works or what models are available. It's just like saying, "I know a gun kills, that's all I need to know." If you don't know how to take care of your gun, it'll degrade quicker.

AA means anti-aliasing. It smooths out all the rough edges so that the frame looks cleaner. Try comparing RS with no AA and with x4 AA. You'll see a big difference. Remember, AA puts a lot of strain on your PC (RS doesn't do it too much, depends on the game, really), so it's wise for only those with high specs to use it.

But I believe I'm getting a bit off-topic. If you do want to run 25-30 bots simultaneously like grave, then go for it. I'd personally buy all my parts from Newegg, but, whatever floats your boat.

 

I can help you choosing that stuff from cyberpower, I'm experienced in building computers

 

What's your msn?

 

Use him, I'm sure he'll be more reliant then me. Goodluck choosing one. ^.^

Btw, is this the site you wanna buy from?
http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/
You got the link wrong.

 

Yeah that's what I meant, and you could help me some time if you wanna. I don't plan on purchasing it till next Thursday but you can save what you build.
