Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I play an online game called 'Oldschool Runescape' it is not a game with good graphics. I have been using an alienware for the last year but I need a second computer so I can play the game on more accounts. I need a computer which allows me to run lots of java clients. My current one will run 11 but always running at 100% CPU usage and will lagg. Would it be best for me to get a i7 gaming pc again or a workstation with an xeon 8 core processor. If you could help me out let me know on what specs to look for.
Kappstone1 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Either get a server and run all your accounts on that machine or build a pc with a shit gpu and stellar cpu/ram. Waste of money to buy a gaming pc, overpaying for a graphics card you won't use in runescape.
Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 I control all the accounts myself so a server isnt an option. I need to play on as many accounts as possible

I'd appreciate it if you could specify a budget, chances are you're better off with an extreme edition i7 as opposed to a workstation CPU, Xeons are expensive for features you will never use.
Kappstone1 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I meant a physical server. Its just a beast ass rig meant to handle a lot of processing. What's your budget?
Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 I push my i7 to the limits everyday playing on 11 accounts at once. Would an xeon be better?
Kappstone1 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 If you have a 3k budget, build your own tower server with a dual CPU motherboard and a fuckbucket of ram. If you have money left over get some SSDs
Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 Not looking to build one. Looking to buy a computer and have it delivered
TwitchFast Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) http://pcpartpicker.com/p/gYsTjX $1960.64 If you don't have a spare GPU sitting around, you'll want: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/powercolor-video-card-ax54501gbk3sh for a video output. Just read you have no intention to build a system, nvm. Edited October 26, 2014 by TwitchFast
Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 That looks good but I dont know how to build a PC =]
Kappstone1 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 @twitchfast has the best suggestion. putting the components together is pretty simple. Plenty of tutorials on youtube. If you can bot 11 accounts, you can put together some parts.
TwitchFast Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 That looks good but I dont know how to build a PC =]If you are willing to learn, I can link you to reputable guides and you can message me via Skype if you have further questions.
Chubby2 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 I dont bot lol but um id rather pay a few extra $ and have it pre made
The Hero of Time Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 You really dont need hardcore shit to play fucking osrs roflmao
