Dual to Three Boxin - Can my rig handle it?

Hey guys, I'm new to the whole Multiboxing community and the actualy boxin'.

Currently im running a dual Shammy setup, using keyclone.

I got a 2.2 Core2Dou, 4Gigs or RAM DDR800 & a GeForce 8400GS. (it's a laptop)

My questions are:

1. Can my machine handle another box?

2. Will my connection produce a decent latency (im from the middle east, running 2 boxes gives me about 150-200 ms)

i got a 250kbps upload and 400kbps download.

I cant wait to start my third shammy!@!@#!$!@
Im using my 70 Pally to Grind instances.

Thanks in advance!

BOOYA! :thumbsup:

Maybe, the graphics adapter may be the weaker link, but being a laptop there isn't much you can do.

My suggestion would be to try 3-boxing with one trial account, that way you will know for sure.

Pretty much yeah, definitely bring all three characters to orgrimmar (or IF if you're alli >.>) also when you do this, it's not as bad as shattrath but will show you if your computer can handle it or not.

If you can keep mid 20s fps or above on all 3 in org you should be fine to 3box imo :)

I have a laptop with similar specs to that and was three boxing on it for a while without a problem. Make sure to look into the maxfps and maxfpsbk commands, as they will be essential to keeping your main window playable.
