He is selling it for 400EUR.


Aswell, if anyone could post the best specs to quadbox with ~30fps would be nice :)

If you're looking to quadbox on a single pc, the above PC is not what you want. 1Gb ram is waaaay too little. You wouldn't be able to move a centimeter in a town. And a single core CPU would also be very stressful.

You need(want) 4Gb ram, not 1Gb. And preferably a quad core cpu, or -at least- a dual-core. Not a single core as the pc above.

Minimal to run 30 fps (15 fpsBK) running at decent enough settings not neccesarily highest but close too and good playability.
I'd go with dual core 2.66Ghz, 4gb DDR2, 512mb Geforce GTX (8800, or 9800) And a WD raptor/velociraptor harddisk or two as well as windows vista 64-bit.

Those parts are pretty out dated, to be honest. You would have a difficult time quadboxing with that setup. The video card is pretty old (AGP), and I highly doubt the single core P4 could handle running 4 instances of wow at the same time while still being playable, and you would DEFINATELY need more than 1GB of ram. Perhaps I'm wrong though, I'm still relatively new to multiboxing

And as a side note, whomever told you that computer is worth 1300EUR is lying to you. It MAY have been worth that, like, 5 years ago, but today, not a chance

its not worth 1300 euro thats for sure...

My 3 year old pc that i just switched out has better specs than that and it could be worth 200 euro MAX.

Aight!
Thanks for the answers, it looked to me (hardware spastic) being quite good :huh:
