Computer Specs Help Pweeze :)

Looking to run 25ish bots at a time. Starting off with 16GB RAM quad core 3.5ghz (correct me if they arent ideal) Video card = ? (desktop)

Advice much appreciated. full specs list will be SUPER HELPFUL

Also, any suggestions where i should bot f2p and p2p? thankies

 

Well you won't really need a really great graphics card because if you lower the graphics on the bots, you'll save valuable CPU and RAM. But if you want it to look as shiny as possible just get a 1GB nVidia GeForce. Any model of the GeForce will do fine. If you're really picky about the graphics, get dual cards if your motherboard supports it.

If you are going to get dual cards, I say get some cooling solution too. Either liquid cooling or some good fans. But I really don't think you're going to be running 25ish bots, even with the decent specs... your connection (as in Internet connection) will eventually start to lag. So many connections is going to cause it REGARDLESS of the specs. You'll either need a decent server, or rent one.

Hope this helps a bit, sorry if a bit long, just wanted to give you my best opinion.

 

bot at soulwars for p2p... and at cockroaches on f2p

 

I hear that the rs bots dont support hyperthreading so with that a AMD x6 would be better then a quad core. Quad core has 4 physical cores where the AMD has 6. Overclock the AMD and you will get even more bots out of it. Also it might be something to wait and see what happens with AMD's new Bulldozer CPU. I hear that it will work with programs that dont support hyperthreadin so it may even be a great breakthrough. 16gb of ram is fine. And a graphics card isnt needed but its good to have one for when you want to play real games.

 

Tbh, you won't really need that great of a graphics card, just a high amount of ram, and make sure you have Liquid Cooling without it your CPU will overheat if your running bots 24/7.

 

wrong

 

no hes not wrong dip shit, running 20+ bots will always require a liquid cooling solutions, other you computer will have a tendency to catch fire haha well.

I have this desktop and running 15 bots no worries.. Never tried more then 15 though...
Intel® Core™ i7-990X Processor (3.46GHz, 12MB)
12GB2 DDR3 SDRAM at 1333Mhz - 3 DIMMS
2000GB3 SATA hard drive

Its the Area 51 ALX Desktop pricey i know, but i got it for my birthday so...

 

My computer Manage devices, all you need is there.

 

So your saying my i5 2500k with a stock fan and heatsink that runs over 20 bots is going to catch fire? Lol wrong. Look around buddy. You'll see plenty of people running 20+ without liquid cooling. How hot is your Dell running 15 bots?

 

could have tripled your specs with a custom built pc with the price of that desktop.. >.<

on a serious note.. dell pcs are shit to begin with..poor airflow and the case is made out of plastic(pretty sure of this) i have a antec 1200 case with 6 fans mounted on it and i have never ever ever had a over heating issues..(maybe dell uses shitty thermal paste when they mount there processors or something? makes a huge difference in temperature)

my pc gets hotter running black ops on max settings for 5 hours then running my 14 bots for 24 hours. my 2cents.

X2. thermal paste and ventilation are key factors. You think a dell small form factor case is going to out perform the exact same computer only in a better case like a Cooler Master or Antec and with some Artic thermal paste? No.

@hint what CPU you running for those 14 bots?

 

You're trully wrong, im on stock fans running up to 15bots on i7-2600 8gb ram, get over it, liquid cooling is over rated.

 

X2. Or how about we do some liquid helium cooling?

 

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.8GHz

one of the first i7s to come out. it can easily be over clocked but for the 3? years i had it i never needed to.
