Sudden lag issue

Hello everyone,

I've been multiboxing since August on World of Warcraft with 6 accounts,while running them OK.Yesterday everything was fine as usual,when 2 hours after my latest session I log back in only to notice and insane amount of lag when entering with all my characters.Since then entering and actually playing the game with even 4 accounts has been impossible.Entering the world takes at least 5 minutes for all of them and FPS-wise it's a nightmare.My build is this:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2400g
GPU: AMD RX 570 4GB
RAM:8GB
MB:ASRock A320M-HDV
I decided to purchase another 8GB of RAM tommorow since the recommended for 6 accounts is 16GB,however I would appreciate some input as Im very curious why this change happened in a span of 2 hours.Note that I tested logging in with 0 addons,I was playing with every setting on low for every account even before the issue arised and tested with every other program/process on the background closed.I didnt notice any InnerSpace or WoW updates either.

Thanks in advance!

You can use f.ex hardware monitor 64 to track temps of cpu, vrm and gpu, and also the current usage of everything.

Are all the fans working..... powersupply ok? Check any case filters and gpu / cpu cooler, clean away if there lots of dust.

Is this slowdown only happening when you play wow?
Tried any other AAA games?

Is there a sluggish feeling when opening programs and moving the cursor within windows, with no games /isboxer running?

Is the OS and drivers (incl gpu) up to date?
What kind of harddrive do you use? Is it little free space on it?
Tried playing from a SSD which has lots of free space?

Maybe you did some changes to the isboxer profile? Tried a earlier profile?

Are all games at ingame settings 1? Using dx11 classic?
Verify by launching 1 game at a time, then save and close game. Relaunch to doublecheck all settings are on nr 1 and at dx11 classic. If games are at dx12... change that first to dx11.."classic" and restart that game. ..many times until settings are on lowest, nr 1. The settings can change after a wow update... (goes back to 10)

Did you alter the bios? Overclock gone bad? Reset bios to default and try see if that helps?

Zero addons? Enable the isboxer addon on each game.

What kind of internetconnection do you use? Tried powering off the router for 5 min and restarted it? If it glowing hot and hidden in a cabinet, starved for airflow? Tested internet speed? Is it what it should be?

If you use a corsair powersupply and it has the corsair link software: enter it and enable single rail mode (disable multi rail mode).

You didnt give much to work with here, could be so many more things ;)

Double-check that the WoWVoiceProxy.exe thingy isn't running. That'll torch your performance. (ISBoxer's recent updates should have fixed that if you use it, though it's a good idea to make sure.)

I have the same problem. 7 accounts. gpu usage 50% even with streamlabs on when streaming. If i multitask or alt tab often i suddenly lose 30% frames. A reboot helps but its annoying. If i dont multitask alt tab often i dont have this problem.

Which cpu? Streaming on a lower tier cpu while playing 7 games? I dont see that being able to provide stable'ish fps. Streaming in 1080p? Which quality? Bitrate? Internet connection? Not much to go on here...

Personally my main game is set to 60 fps front and 60 fps background. My slaves are set to 60 fps front, 30 fps back (on old pc = was at 20).

If you dont stream, are you happy with how the games play then? If you are, you know more where the problem may be.
