My spec:

Core2Duo E6750 @ 2.66GHZ
MB: ASUS P5QL PRO
RAM: 4x1GB OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400
Gainward 8600 GTS
WIN 7 32bit PRO

:eek:I'm running 4 instances of wow @ low and max 30fps with no problems, and 3 HonorBuddy instances ofc. 100% processor usage 2.65GB ram usage
:eek:I tried 6 instances, 2 GB, 4 HB + 6 wow @ low, 30fps. System gone berserk. cpu @ 100% ram @ 2.99GB. HB hangs, does not respond, and i need to end process. Very very laggy.

I need to run 6 instances of wow at least, 3 HB + 3GB.

What should I change? I can only do one thing:
b. buy 8gb ram ddr2
a. change cpu for quad core
 
cpu to quad core is 100$ (amd) or more if its intel <-- which urs is
ram = 40-50/stick 4gb
vid card is OK, but could be upgraded (my laptop has a 8600 and 4gb ddr2 - 2.0 ghz duo core)
 
We almost got the same system, except i got 6 GB mem, and windows 7 64bit version.
Its to old system to upgrade the cpu only, cpu on the market requires socket 1156 or 1366, that means you need to change your motherboard aswell.
I would turn off all the unused windows services, turn off all addons in wow and keep low settings on windows appearance, see if that helps.
 
You need a better CPU no doubt and more ram, u'r video card is just fine. I got a Nvidia 7900 GTX on my desktop and with 6 wow instances as you said, my GPU usage is between 0-15% usage. Same GPU usage on my laptop with an ATI Radeon 4650. Multiboting requires CPU and RAM, any low price video card can handle 20-30 bots on one machine with no problem as long as you set or ingame FPS to 15 active and 10 on idle.

Also if you get more ram, make sure you install a x64 bit Windows, like Windows XP x64 , Windows 7 x64 or you will only be able to use 3 GB ram. With Windows XP x64 you save like 500 MB ram - OS default usage.

You could also just upgrade your ram and overclock your CPU, E6750 goes from 2.66 GHz up to 4 GHz overclocked. That would surely boost your boting performance :)

Get a half-decent after market cooler for $40-50 and OC that chip... stick a fresh install of Windows 7 x64 and you'll be able to handle 8+ bots nicely.
 
As lepton said. Have a minimum of 4 gig ram and overclock it to ~3.2-3.5 ghz and it will run fine.
Your ram will also be faster when you overclock the cpu
 
win 7 x64 installed. gonna do some oc now :D


note: now i can run 6 instances with no problem. it seems that the ram was the issue. i might buy 2gb more...
