Ok, so like I said in another thread (synergy question), I went to 2 boxes. My 4 slaves are running on one machine, quad core, 4g, 4850 ATI. My tank is running on the new box, 2g, and the 2600 ati and dual core leftover from when I built my original rig. Just flew to Dalaran, and almost immediately after landing, I was able to hit /follow and have my toons follow me to the VH gates without stopping every few seconds for them to catch up.
Hmm. I really need to do this.
wow sucks ram like a mofo...upgrade your ram to 8gigs on the four box machine and enjoy not stopping anywhere at all.
Nice move. Moving the awesomeness to more machines helps :D
I have 4 gigs of ram, and I 5 box. 40 fps on main in dalaran, rest is 25.
Main: /console maxfps 40 /console maxfpsbk 15
Slaves: /console maxfps 25 /console maxfpsbk 15
There you go.
What resolution do you run at? What settings for performance on graphics etc?Quote:

I run 5 clients, 1680x1050, all settings low except view distance which is just over half on all 5 clients.
8gb ram, 3.3ghz amd quad core, 8800GT, and run 20~fps in dalaran and 15fps on background clients - all well and good in my book since it's not like I'm pvping in Dalaran - out in the world I'm pushing 60fps on the main.
I just upgraded to quad core and 8 gigs of ram with windows7 64 bit and a 3disk raid 0. Fired up 5x wow and went to Dalaran and watched it go from awesome sauce to 6seconds per frame lag hell. I spent a good hour or so figuring out how to work the symlink folders and once that was complete dalaran was 30fps on all 5 windows.
It wasn't ram for me but the symlinking of folders that made the entire difference.
Just move somewhere colder and then you will save on heating bills :PQuote:

on a more serious note, I've been running 2 machines for my 5, but am seriously tempted to step up to 5 hardware boxing.

We just keep the temperature cooler in the whole house, and the computer room (running 10 hardware PCs) is always a couple degrees warmer. Just suck it up and wear a sweatshirt in the rest of the house. ;)
