For a nice little 5man, a nvidia 1060 6gb vram or better is good enough, for 4 slaves on settings 1 and the main on settings 5+. On 1080p. Fps set to 60 front and 30 back in isboxer.

Any newer modern gpu with similar or better specs would work fine.

Ideal gpu atm, personal preference, is the Radeon RX 5700 XT, performance to price, for a 5man.

Do NOT buy this version though.

What is this settings 1 and settings 5? I’m on a 1070 and have horrible issues when first starting up when in citites

Look up "slot swap macro" in the forums here. That'll dramatically improve performance on your main.

He never stated which cpu he had. But i was assuming he had a modern 6core/12threads atleast. Ideal is 2 cores/2threads per game + 2cores/2threads unassigned for the OS. Overclock cpu and gpu if able. Ssd with 500 mb/s at the lowest (though modern m.2 nvme with 2gb/sec will feel like almost instant loadtimes). And yes, slotswap grafix macros + run the game in dirext x11 legacy mode.

I run 10x toons on a GTX 1080 - Normally have them all on 1 (lowest) with view distance set to maximum. If I want it to look pretty just set my main to quality 7 but this causes issues in wPvP.

looks like you guys are on higher version of mine.. 1070 & 1080.. im on 8700 cpu..
when i run 5box with other emulator like nox.. it slows down my wow even on setting 2 (x4) and setting 5

I have a similar setup but different results, my stuff is running smoothly. Is all your hardware updated?

after reboot it runs smoothly, but it there's env effects such as fire etc.. then it lags on the other 4.. i run other emu like nox etc.. after sometime, everything just slows and i need to do a reboot.. but other than wow x5 and nox, i got nothing else running. not sure if its 5x wow but anyway, its still playable for now..

amd 3900x, Geforce 2070 and setting 10 on tanks and 7 on follow toons (old pc was from 2011 with graphics update in 2015)

Runs smooth 95% of the time

Can experience lag when I landed on Mechagon (All done there so fine with that) but the new Vale and Uldum runs perfect
