New multiboxer with a few questions.

[Janix]

Aight so firstly I will start off by saying I love this site, and it has been so helpful. After putting it off for months, I have decided to start five boxing due to the RAF bonuses. I just have a few
questions for you all before I get started.

Currently I have one account, one computer, and two monitors. I built my pc in April '07. Here are the specs:

Processor - Core 2 Duo e6400 overclocked to 2.6
Motherboard - Gigabyte 965p-DS3
Ram - 4 gigs DDR2 800 Dual Channel (Xp only sees 3gigs)
Power Supply - Cooler master 750 watts
Video Card - Geforce 8800 GT 512mb
HD - Western Digital 160gb Sata
Case - Antec 900
OS - Xp Home
Keyboard - G15
Mouse - Just a basic Microsoft optical
Other - Also have a Nostromo if needed


I am looking to five box on this one computer for now. Should I be okay with these specs with four of the WoWs at minimum settings, and one at max? I will be using my second monitor for the four "clones",
and my main monitor for my main. Will I need any other hardware for this setup? And will I just need Keyclone or another similar program as far as software goes, and that's it?

As far as the RAF goes. If I recruit all four "clones" with my main, will all five get 300% exp as long as they are all the same level?

you probably can run 5 at low settings.. but as far as 4 low settings and 1 maxed you might get alot of lag around shat and the major cities.

Graphics and RAM are fine. Only bottleneck will be your CPU. Just set them to ultra-low settings (probably all 5, including your main) and you should be OK. Also, don't forget the MAXFPSBK settings ('http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Adual-boxing.com+maxfpsbk') for max performance.

I don't suggest trying to use the second monitor, especially if you plan to use keyclones PiP feature. I have a 9800gx2 and a quad core, and I still couldn't get 4 running on another monitor successfully, was horrible performance.

I have an e4300 OCed to 2.905GHz. Play just fine with the clones on lowest and the main on max settings.
