dokato Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 What CPU should I consider to buy in order to run at least 4 bots properly for example? (not mirror) And how about RAM? 1 stick or multiple smaller sticks? Thanks in advance.
Muffins Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 Really wouldn't need that strong of a CPU, some intel dual core (or probably even less), a single 4GB stick should suffice as well for RAM
kushad Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Cpu matters, ram doesnt as much i can run about 4-5 bots on my i5 4670k with 16gig ram but i dont use any ram at all. It bottle necks my cpu after 5 at like 95% usage Edited November 15, 2016 by kushad
RDM Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) AMD is a cheaper alternative for cpu's. I'm running a FX-8350 which runs 8-core 4.0mhz that I paid $200 canadian for. You can go even cheaper if you really want like the A-10 series for ~$120. At the same time you need to keep in mind of thr chipset of your current pc (if not building from scratch) as well if its intel or amd motherboard Edited November 15, 2016 by RDM 3

RDM Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Thx, And how many bots can u run? Each client uses 8-12% cpu, but you also have to account for everything else running in the background Edited November 15, 2016 by RDM 1
Precise Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 i'd recommend finding a script which is compatible with low CPU mode since for me that drastically reduces CPU but does cause issues with interactions. so make sure to find the correct script or a private script with custom interaction methods. 1

Thx, I write them myself so no worries on that, i'm just looking for the best hardware stuff for good budget
Precise Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 Thx, I write them myself so no worries on that, i'm just looking for the best hardware stuff for good budget OSBot interactions dont work correctly in low cpu mode, so if you need some help there are some good snippets which will help you if you are efficient with your scripts lots can be possible like <= 3% cpu usage but yeah, i can't help with hardware 1
Token Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 Don't look that much at clock rates and check the architecture instead. I personally own both Ivy Bridge and Haswell CPUs, and at a lower clock rate, the Haswell one outputs double performance when it comes to botting. I believe i7 hyperthreading may also be useful because the JVM runs at least 25 threads. 2
