Im multiboxing 10 atm and I thought about 20-boxing but I dont know if my pc can Handle it.
Based on my computer specs can I run 20 clients while still keeping above 40 fps and below 200 latency
I use keyclone But I can change if its a problem
Windows 7
i7 @ 2.80 ghz 8 CPUs
12 GB of RAM
GTX 470 Memory: 4064 MB

while 10-boxing im getting 80 latency and 60 fps

This post sounds...... trollish...

What do you plan to do with an odd number like 20 that you can't do with 10?

Would you mind providing a link to that video card? My Google skills seem to be less than accurate at the
moment...

If you want my honest opinion at 1AM I would say the answer to your question is no. I can see how you can 10
box with Keyclone and maintain 60FPS on your main client since you are most likely running 9 out of those 10
clients at some ridiculously low resolution to save on resources but I've never heard of a 4GB GTX 470 card. If
you're not running those other 9 clients at a low resolution then you're probably using up a good chunk of
system resources at the moment with 10. I'm going to guess you would run out of system RAM or video RAM
while attempting 20 clients.

Are you currently using a /focus based system or an FTL system with those 10?

Latency will not be much effected by number of clients.

12G system ram will not run 20 clients.

Must mean he has two 2G video cards.

There is no possible way you will run tiled with each tile in full resolution. You will really be hurting for screen space if you tile all 20 on one monitor.

You can run full screen like I do but flipping though 20 screens isnt practical.

Anything over 10 clients and you need more then one computer to be practical.
