running multi accounts.. How?

[gunga]

as topic says im abit curious how you guys with 3+ accounts run them all at once

do you have 3 computers running each 1 or 1 computer running 5 accounts etc

i would like to know this cause im thinking about adding 2 more accounts to my collection but my only computer can only run 2 accounts at the time.

Depends on your computer specs. But i guess most of the people running multiple bots on the same computer!

Im running 2 accounts + 2 HB sessions on my laptop and thinking about a third account. Tried it and it went well with no problems, could add 2 more and it would run well I guess.

What kind of pc do you have if you can only run 2 accounts?

First of all you should set graphic on low and select the lowest possible resolution. On these settings I have no problems even with running 5 account simultaneously and I believe, my PC can handle even with 10 or more.
i7 980x, gtx 480 (yeah, it's quite old and extremely hot).
It's obvious, the more accounts you use at the same time, the more RAM you need. When I run 5 accounts, 6Gb out of 8 are consumed.

Btw, isn't it risky to use more than one account at the same time? I think Blizzard may have some shit which sends them some information about the other wow.exe processes.

What DG-X said. Higher resolutions require more video memory, so if your VGA has 1GB of RAM, you will have to lower the resolution extremely in the game settings, as say 5 windows running at 1000x1000 resolution each would make a total of 5000x5000 pixels to render, which will require a VGA with 2GB or even better, 3GB video memory, so you will do best if you have a lot of RAM on your machine and a VGA or even two with more than 3GB ram.

Typically, all game settings should be set to LOW, except for View Distance, which should be the last to go. Honorbuddy does no pixel scanning and click sending, only memory reads and writes, so poor picture quality won't affect its performance.

You are a bit mistaken here. 5000x5000 is 25 1000x1000 windows, not 5.

I am running 20 at once all off SSD's and 1 computer I have about 4 ssd's for speed for WoW and no lag what so ever Graphics card is not a issue its more on your hdd or ssd

this i would like to know also since ill be running 4 wow windows at the same time

edit: when i come to think about it multiboxers are running usely 5 accounts at the same time so dont think they have anything against multi processes of wow running.

It's crazy, man! I heard that SSD provides a very limited amount of read/write operations. Aren't you afraid of having one of them broken down?

You can run as many WoW's as your computer will allow at once and Blizzard couldn't care less. When I decide to multibox thats 5 accounts right there, then sometimes ill even have another 2-3 accounts farming. Blizzard doesn't care about multiple wow exe's running at once.

I wouldn't be so sure. Who knows, everything is possible.
