Input from those running multiple accounts on one machine.

[Meeo]

Hey everyone,

Up to level 18 so far with 5 accounts. I am running 4 most of them time with a buddy running a priest.

Is anyone able to run 5 accounts with 25fps or more?

Here is what I am getting.

0-3 accounts about 25fps.
4 accounts drops to 11 to 17 fps.
5 drops to 8-12 fps.

5 works, but is a pain. People are dropping follow from lag and so on.

Does anyone have a rig that can run all 5 accounts at 30fps on decent settings?

I curently have an i7 950, 2 X 2gig vid cards and 12 gig ram. Not sure an upgrade is going to make a dramatic difference.

Thanks for the input.

I would assume you mean on 1 machine, as i run 5 accounts on 5 separate machines, and there FPS is 25 to 40 on low rendering, minus my main machine which has 45+ FPS.

Yep, one machine. I can do it, it looks ok, but at times it gets a little slow.

I run all my 5 accounts at around 35 FPS( ofc it gets lower down to 10-20 when im in a major rift or city) I run with I7 930 2x 5870 and 12g RAm nothing overcloked yet, waiting for my watercooling to get the CPU higher, then i hope i can get some more frames.. what graphics cards are you using?

I have two GTX 295 2gig cards in the machine, so 4gigs video ram. Wondering if upgrading them would make a massive difference or just a slight difference.

I have a liquid cooled system and am not seeing your numbers.

Did you change any other settings or do anything else to the game or your computer to get the higher numbers? I can get 10-12fps during rifts with 5 copies running on one system, but I have never seen 35fps for each of the 5 clients all running at once out in the wilderness.
