Need a CPU, MOBO, and RAM for 5 bots

Would it be better to get the 8150 instead of the 6000 series for $20 more bucks?
 
can't run 15 on any machine, not enough cpu - those that tell you otherwise are liars.

This is not true. There are a bunch of cpus that can provide enough computing power for 15 d3+db. The question is, whether or not it is worth getting such. I have not tried personally, but i think a well overclocked i7 3770k will be able to run 15, on a dedicated machine, that is. Pretty sure the extreme 6 core edition of i7 will, but for that price, i'd get 2 separate machines ;p

FX 6300 is Vishera, newest architecture, while FX 8120 is Zambezi, older architecture. Although for our specific needs, it might turn out to be better. Keep in mind, that the electricity bill will be larger as well.
 
i think the prime price range for diablo3 botting computers is 700-1100
I prefer higher end ones myself, because i dont want a bunch of shitty computers with no resell value

ok nothing about that was sourced or meant to be precise, - general numbers for trying to explain something

do you have proof that they're lying
 
can you upload a picture with more than 4 pixels please, i can hardly see what your specs/stats are
 
It's an Opteron at 2.5Ghz 12.5X200Mhz @ 1.112V. 64GB of RAM. CPU usage 31%, RAM usage 28%. It's pretty distinguishable.

You willing to put money on that? My rig would easily push more than 15 :))). Asus KGPE-D16... 64GB DDR3 Quad rank... X2 Opteron 6272's (32 cores total) . Bought used parts and got the entire rig for < $1k on ebay, using engineering sample procs. I do use 3 separate hard drives with a large amount of cache though, and a single ATI 5770. My electricity costs are crazy low compared to how much I would spend to run 8 quad core comps. The turbo boost 2.5 clock is just enough. With 32 cores I can run 8+ Quad core VM's (Yes I know more than 8x4 is beyond the 32 cores, but with VM's it's possible to CPU swap allowing even more cores than you actually have).....so do I win the gold sticky for Cost/Performance???? Long live AMD!


The image just shows my proc's as proof of 1 machine having 32 cores. Hell 64 core machine is plausible, but I think you would overload the bus and bottleneck the system.

Now this is stupid;P no offense, but such an overkill for botting is not a smart thing to do. If you had this type of hardware laying around, okay, then i am being wrong, at least you put it to use. But as we've discussed before, server grade hardware for botting is unnecessary overkill.

p.s. and stating that you bought this setup for $1000 on eBay is just ridiculous, i don't believe that for a second, sorry.

yeah, i cant read that, it takes up like a third of my screen like its cropped funny (didnt remove all whitespace) so its smaller than it should be.

i can barely make out the black text, but all the others arent readable for me
 
Here are some nice little links to US eBay with the hardware this dude says he spent $1000 for (the whole rig):
CPU x1
MOBO

I think this is enough. Tired of bullcrap i am out
 
life is so difficult lol, maybe its my monitor. i just put my 06 one back on, because i was going to rework my monitor rig
 
Before calling someone a liar, actually know what you're talking about. Here's a proc for $200 16 core:

and you're welcome..

I never said you lied, i just said this is ridiculous. Afaik, engineering samples are the "beta" ones that come out before the finished product and often are flawed. Never bought one, so you are right, i don't know about that. Interesting build, tho, if i was based in the US, i'd probably attempt something similar. But buying 400$ engineering samples oversees is a bit risky to me. Anyhow, i still think this is an overkill for botting. And even if you get both chips for $400, you still need that much worth of a mobo, not to mention memory, x2 GPUs(for over 15 bots), psu, server case. I am confident you will go over $1000. Or maybe you found some clever way around paying for these components in full as well. Kudos if so.
