Buying or building a new computer at the end of the month, need some help on specs of what I should be looking for. I want to be able to run 20bots on my comp at 1 time. Any help is greatly appreciated

How much are you looking to spend?

Definitely build, and yes as @Anon said price is a good place to start off before we can help you with a build.

Also besides botting what else do you plan to do on it (specifically, any gaming)?

Imo a good base price to spend would be 500 USD

realistically Im probably willing to spend 700-1200$

 

And it would be used for botting/web surfing/Maybe some LoL

$700-$1200 gives us a good place to start. I'll try recommend some products to you.

GPU: The MSI Twin Frozr performs very well AND you get Batman: Arkham Origins for free!

Price: $259.99

 

PSU: For this purpose I am recommending an 80plus GOLD certified PSU, when it comes to buying a PSU you're better buying a good one rather than a shit one. Therefore the Corsair HX750W will be more than enough for this config, it will also allow you to squeeze in another GPU in SLI if you wish to in the future.

This is the basis of your build, I've left out the DVD drive and the HDD for you to choose as those aren't hard to pick. The above config comes to a total of $1039.96 giving you around $200 still to spend on the HDD and optical drive. However, one thing I will suggest is that the CPU can be downgraded to an i5 3570k which will give you good performance especially when OC'd to 4.0 GHz. That will save you $100+ which could mean the difference if you want an SSD. I hope this has helped. Also the RAM can be downgraded to 8GB if you wish as well, I put the 16GB in because I really don't know how much memory 20 bots takes up.
