Hello i recently got a new DELL Precision T5500 for 350$

And i am wondering how many bots could i start on this thing?

Spec:

CPU: 2 x intel Xeon E5620 Quad Core 2.4-2.66 GHZ. Each processor has 8 cores, but since i have 2 processors on the MB making it a 16 core system.
Ram: 12 GB 6x2GB
HDD: 320 GB
Video Card: Nvidia Quadro FX 580 512MB GDDR3 128 bit

Also any bottlenecks that i may have, besides the video card?
 
Zero atm,
Everyone got banned using HB and that's sad, I lost 3 account in 3 different months and the last one being feb 1st was just using a combat rotation and using WQ dailies..

The ram amount, obviously.
Nowadays you need 1-1.5GB per WoW session (including HB), including the Windows dedicated RAM around 3-4GB, you have place just for 4-5 bots atm.

You actually have 2x QuadCore workstation, which have 8 virtual threads each, but 4 cores each indeed. Its not much, but could power around 10 WoWs (depend what they bot)

For real boost, any low-cost SSD 120GB+ is recommended, plus maxing the RAM to at least 24/36GB if possible. The DDR3 modules are dirty cheap nowadays on the aftermarket on Ebay. As low as ~$12-14 per 8GB stick. The 4GB sticks are even cheaper!
 
It's not 16 cores. It's 8 cores with HyperThreading, making it 16 threads. Threads =/= cores.
But yeah, still a decent system. SSD is a must though, as Aion states.
RAM is 99% surely ECC, so you need to find the correct type if you want to add more. Can't buy non-ECC (the common type) then.
 
Could someone recommend a CPU for new botting rig? Currently I have i7 2600k overclocked to 4.4 but max I can run is 10 wows at 25 fps/tps 90-100% load
 
Have you locked the FPS in WoW, Druid? Makes a huge difference. Lock FPS to 20, set TPS to 10.
 
As far as I know, your FPS must always be higher than your TPS setting. If it dips below, bad stuff will happen. I usually ran 7/15 or 10/20.
 
About the ram thing, each wow instance takes 100-200 mb for me. I just ran memclean every 5 min or when ram is at 70% and trim down the memory usage. No ill effects for performance.

Cool story.

Try botting raids - LFR/Normal raids and screen it again :D

Of course there is tools, which would lower the WoW RAM.

So do you think OP will make a raidgroup with his bots?
Because I don't.

The screenshot is from when I were running 5 bots in dungeons, 1 per dungeon. Which I'm guessing is what OP will do, or gathering, which doesn't take 1gb+ anyway.

Dungeon suicide
 
There is a guy on youtube called Techdeals he was showing performance and ram on games. Basically you don't need say 16gigs to play any game out there. but the more ram does improve loading performance and occasional screen lag that happens when loading a new zone/city etc while running around. Personally I like smooth game play so I would upgrade to 16+ gigs. plus consider other applications you might be running as well. SSD is a wise investment as well.
 
I gave it a spin last night with 6 trial accounts (don't have more HB keys).

Each wow consumes between 0.8-1% CPU and HB respectively 0.9. - 1.1% CPU, but this is in orc start zone. I expect a maybe stable 1% -1.5% for each wow in the newer zones also i expect CPU usage to go up when the wow instances start to pile up, so i am not saying herp-derp 90 instances wow botting rig for 350$
In regards to RAM: I am able to keep wow using 100-200 mb RAM. Slight cpu usage increase for a moment when mem clean cleans the ram, but goes back to normal fast.
SSD will be mandatory as many people mentioned as if i am farming instances i want fast loading screens , since it is a server i can do a RAID, but probably just going the SSD path.

So far content with the purchase.
