Kramnik Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Hey guys, thinking of buying additional PC since I run my bot farm on my only laptop and it pretty much becomes unusable when the farm is on. Since I will need to start writing my barchelor degree work I will need it Since I dont want to use VPS I'm thinking of investing into additional gaming PC so I could have my farm on it while I use my laptop when writing and additional pc for farming when I dont need it Currently looking at: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X, Hexa Core, 3.60GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) 19MB, AM4, 95W, 14nm, Six-Core/12Threads + 19MB CacheCOOLER: Xilence XC025 / CPU max. TDP 130W / Fan Speed 600 - 2200 10% RPM / Fan Control - YesGPU: Radeon RX580 8GB Sapphire Nitro+RAM: 2x 8GB DDR4 2666Mhz Dual Channel (16GB RAM)PSU: Kolink KL-600M 600W 80 Plus Modular Power SupplySSD: SAMSUNG arba ADATA 128GB SSD SATA3 Price: 585 euro What is your opinion of this PC for gold farming? Any part of it needs to be improved? How many bots you think I could run? 2
Affray Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 I think you'd be able to run around 5 bots when you're not using your computer and they'd run run fine. But I have to recommend getting a Windows RDP server - would serve you much better.
UPTHEABRO Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 you can run 10+ bots easily depending if you are using Mirror mode

ASUS K73SD, Intel® Core™ i5 2450M, 8GB, HDD. I usually run 8 bots, also tried to run 10-11 but it gets harder to manage them, also they get slower and gets less gp/h so for that PC 8 is quite optimal. I think the weakest point of that PC is it's CPU since I only use 50-60% RAMS when farm is up. Comparing this PC CPU and the one I am planning to buy: Old one - 2 Cores, 4 Threads, 2,5GHz, turbo 3,1GHz New one - 6 Cores, 12 Threads, 3,6Ghz, turbo 4Ghz More than 4 times powerful than old one Also it has SSD instead of HDD which should also help with speed. I hope it will run 20+ bots, but by the look at numbers it could be twice of that 1

I hope it will run 20+ bots, but by the look at numbers it could be twice of that as i said it depends if you are running mirror mode or not if u are not you can easily run 20+ also ssd is only for read/write onto ssd/hdd it doesent do anything for botting its cpu based 1
SocialGFX Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) @kramnik I personally stick with Intel and Nvidia, but this rig will be good for playing recent games as well as running a small bot farm. Around 15 - 20 bots if it's not bogged with other bullshit. You may want to go with DDR4 RAM clocked with a higher speed rating 3000-3200mhz. Will help tremendously. SSD vs HD doesn't make a difference at all when it comes to running bots. (you're not loading saved materials from the HD, ect.) It's based on processing speeds/power and memory. SSD DOES make a huge difference in actual games or software installed on your computer. SSD is all I use at this point. Edited March 21, 2019 by SocialGFX 2
UPTHEABRO Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 i have the ryzen 2600 16gb ram and can run 30 bots @ 75%
Charlotte Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Back when I was running a little bot farm. 36% cpu usage at 29 bots. And yes, back then when osbot was v2.4

AsBakedAsCake Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 This will run around 15, you could probably push 20.
