leony Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Right, My little I5 set up isn't performing the way I want it to, it's great for games and general but when it comes to making money I want to build another computer for botting. I have looked into a Ryzen Thread ripper 1950x 16 core, 32 threads I don't want to build this computer for general gaming the MAIN purpose is Botting. Do I build a dual xeon set up? or any other suggestions. Not a budget at all, considering the 1950x cpu is 1k alone.
Duhstin Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 If no budget, go with i9-7980XE or the thread ripper. Question is, how many bots do you want to run? No point in spending that much if you're wanting to do a small p2p farm or something.

Both are Xeons. If you're only looking to only run 20, I wouldn't spend a lot. 32gb ram, and one of these older Xeon setups will do fine. If you go E5-2670 route, I'd go with more ram so you get a lot of head room for more bots if you decide to expand. The dual E5-2670 setup benchmarks like 18k I believe, while the thread ripper is around 22.5k IIRC. Edited July 31, 2018 by Duhstin
