check services and processes, basically try and speed up your pc with basic maintenance.

PM me, up to you ;)

Case - Corsair Carbide 400R
Graphics Card - any 660Ti
Motherboard - Any decent Z77 board. Asus Sabretooth etc
PSU - Something around 650-700W you don't need any more.

You only need cpu cooling, what comes with ram and gpu is enough, timing / speed for ram doesn't matter as much on the current socket.

When you say any 660ti, how much GB should I look for and what other specific things that will add a plus on it? Please elaborate why choose 660ti.

About the ram, do you mean as long as its dd3 it doesnt matter wtf else there is? Dunno much about rams so i dont know what those number mean.

Will the CPU and GPU be able to be clocked to get the best bang out of the buck?

DDR3 1600mhz regardless of the timings doesn't really make much difference when it comes to gaming and might provide about a seconds difference doing other tasks that rely on fast ram.

The 660Ti is the best video card you can get right now in regards to bang for buck and overclocks well if you get a decent model (gigabyte, ati, msi)

Any 2gb model will be fine, you can get 3gb if you like but all that ram is really doing is holding the textures and with multiple instances of diablo 3 it's loading the same textures for each instance anyway. the only point where video ram REALLY matters is when you're playing video games in huge resolutions like 2048x1536 or using eyefinity/nvidia surround or something insane like that.

Ok thanks.

But how many bots can this machine run?

why get i5 when i7 is better? $100 is worth it imho...

People said i7 is not worth it due to the HT being useless for boting. And even if I use i7,it will only be 8-12% faster? Thats whats people said atleast.

if u want to do something else during botting go for i7, if not go for whatever u want..

Since u you could afford the better one, why not do it? 3 keys for life in demonbuddy are equal cash as the better processor...

8-12% now, and u can OC it even further!

But okay, its yr decision:)

Okey then,gonna rethink it if i skimp the processor or not.
 
Still wondering which of these graphics cards are the best

I'm unable to give an informed opinion on this sort of stuff, simply because i haven't ran more than 2 bots myself. although on my current pc i did bot 8 league of legends accounts at a time in vms
(i5 2500k @ 4.3ghz, MSI 6970, 8GB Ram) i'd have probably been to do a little more with more ram or a higher overclock.

To be honest? Any, the 2 gigabyte cards are the same except the 1032MHz card is slightly overclocked out of the box and the MSI card is also good. It's pretty much a preference on aesthetics more than anything.

There is no point getting a processor with hyper-threading because it's just virtual cores. it will still have 4 cores with 8 threads. If those 4 cores are under use on either you won't get extra performance with the extra 4 threads. If Intel had an 8 core in a decent price range I'd recommend that.

Im guessing the 240 gb SSD is enough? Since I probably need to make 10x d3 copies on 1 machine? + ofc OS and other shizzle.

I would go with MSI or EVGA for the GTX660Ti. MSI has good factory overclock. But they did recently get caught by Nvidia for abusing voltages on those cards, and will be replacing their current 660Ti model in the next month.

EVGA on the other hand is high quality, good factory overclocks, and EXCELLENT customer service. They also have a 90 day step up program (you can upgrade your video card through EVGA, and just pay the difference). Also if you wanted to sell it later on, EVGA 3 year warranty follows the card, not the original owner. So that is a plus for resale.

I have the EVGA GTX660Ti, it runs at 40% load for 4 D3's.

I would recommend the EVGA GTX660Ti Signature 2 superclocked, or the FTW edition. Or spend a bit more and get the 670. I'm upgrading my 660Ti to a 670 FTW edition just for the hell of it, not because its slow or anything...

If you're only running on a one monitor setup, anything over 2GB VRAM is major overkill. Also if you run the GTX660Ti on a multiple monitor setup, performance will suffer due to the 192-bit memory interface, and then I would strongly recommend the GTX670 for its 256-bit.

To finish:

MSI if you don't have EVGA as an option.

EVGA GTX660Ti for single monitor setup.

EVGA GTX670 for multiple monitor setup.

I have a 128gb ssd, 5 diablo 3's, and I only have like 10gb free space left. 240gb will be fine, but will be a tight fit. If you have other programs/games/music/photos/videos/os on the 240gb ssd on top of 10x D3's, you will run out of space. Might as well get a cheap regular HD for storage, and only keep your OS and games on the 240gb ssd, or get a larger ssd if you can afford it.

That's what I thought. I would have the ssd just for d3 and have a normal hd for the rest of the other stuff.

Thanks alot for the explanation about the GPU, but what about the motherboard. there just cant be the answer get a z77, there has to be other specific things I should look for? specially when im gonna use 32 gb ram with all the other parts.

Make sure to get a fan controllable PSU and watercooling, this will kill any noise and is good for a botting computer while you sleep.

PSUs by default do max speed, really annoying but if it doesn't then the PC blows up... although It should cut out and shutdown before then.
