PC for dual botting.

[Ericane]

I am concidering building a new computer since I am skilled in that area. Do you guys have any advices on what components I should use in order to have a pc that is powerfull enough to run
2x wow instance + 2x honorbuddy + 1x arelog for longer sessions? (Id also like to be able to play wow at ultra graphics with a good framerate. Concidering 120hz/3D.)

Are wow & botting eating more RAM or CPU power?

Is i7/16GB ram enough? (plus a powerfull GPU)

Feel free to discuss/give advices

Thanks!

That should be fine. I am running a 2500k and running 2x WoW but on a single monitor at 2560x1440. I would prefer to run it on two monitors but I have to pick up another. I'm running WoW in windowed mode and toggle back and forth between the windows cascaded. 49% cpu usage and 4.23gb of my 8gb memory. What video card are you planning to use? gtx 680?

Thanks for the quick anser!

Ill probably use 6xx series GPU yes.

I do currently only have 4gb ram and amd quad core, It can only handle dual botting for a short time before crashing.. That is one reason why Im upgrading

to put it simply the CPU requirement can be either a sandy-bridge CPU or Ivy-Bridge i5 or i7, depending on your motherboard ofcourse.
for ram i currently have 16GB and able to run 3 wow bots "3x wow, 3x hb , 1x arelog" fine while playing 1080P HD anime

but well my GPU is one of the best a GTX670 if you are going with AMD Gpu i'd suggest the 7950-7850 something that is strong or if you are going with Nvidia i'd suggest something GTX660Ti + or 2x 580's

I have an i7 with 4gb of ram. Run 2 copies of wow and HB every day for the last 3 years.

Your computer wont even come close to passing 8GB of ram usage....

You dont need 16GB RAM thats more for people doing professional computer designs, Auto CAD and crap like that.

i7 is not the way to go for gaming its performance is only a little better then the i5. I would stick to the i5 its the best for all around gaming. Now if your looking best CPU for WoW you would have to go into the new 2011 CPU sockets which really isnt worth the cost. the GTX 670 is a beast hands down right now with 1 WoW running its at 100+ FPS, if you cant afford a GTX 670 dont worry about WoW isnt very graphically intensive my prior system was using a GTX 460 that left played it perfectly while raiding a little choppy here and there but still playable without me getting DCed because of it.
