Building a computer for botting

I'm trying to build my first computer for botting, I want to build it to were it can run 10-20+ bots, and I can still listen to music, surf the web, or watch YouTube videos wile I monitor the bots. I think I will set it up to were I have 2 monitors 1 with the 10 bots all viewable and the other for surfing the web.


What I don't know is what parts I would need to do this and how much it would cost for the build.

 

I've bought a brand new computer from medion for 1050 euro, http://www.medion.com/be/prod/MEDION®+ERAZER®+PC+X5368+D/510017061 . I can run 15 bots.

 

Almost always best/cheapest to build own high end gaming computer.


A build like this would cost around $900 ish depending on deals and parts picked.

I'd report this thread and have it be moved to the Technology section, you'll get ore replies in there.

 

Jesus fuck guys, THOUSAND FUCKING EUROS? :::::::
Come one, you could scrap up a pc for less than 50euros and still run some bots and listen to music.
EDIT: Don't run vista

 

how do I do that?

thanks, but it says this

Reporting a post will bring it to the staff's attention; action will only be taken if the post being reported violates the forum rules.

 

Don't worry about that, it can be used for request etc.

I've used it for title changes, thread moves, etc. hundreds of times.

It's the best way to get a mods attention to do something you need done.

 

Ok I sent it thanks

 

Do you have any botting experience? Last think you would want is to invest so much on a computer solely intended for botting just to find out it is a no go. Perhaps play a round with a vps or a dedicated server first?

 

bump this up

 

Bots are based entirely on the processor power, so you can probably make a computer that runs 30+ bots for less than 500 dollars.

I recommend a high quality i5/i7 with or without integrated graphic capabilities (if without make sure the motherboard has it, if it does have it make sure the motherboard doesn't)

Such a minimalist setup also means the power supply can be much lower power and the case can be very small with not too much cooling.

 

As suggested! search for a VPS if you want your own PC, here goes:
