So pretty recently I decided to step from 3-4boxing, to 5boxing with RaF. My system always ran 4 pretty nicely (could of been better) but now after trying to run 5, its pretty frustrating as far as performance goes. I'm going to have to upgrade my PC before I can go any further so take a look at my current specs and lets see what could be changed.

OS: Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 32-bit
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ (2.31 GHz)
RAM: 2GB
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT

My best guess (and from what I have read) is that my memory needs to go from 2GB to 4GB to be able to run 5 clients. I'm on a semi-tight budget because I'm going to have to start funding 4 new accounts from the bottom up. However, what is the best solution for me while staying under $100 (preferably under $60 )?

Right now I keep my main's settings pretty much maxed while my 4 slaves completely at the lower end of the spectrum. Without sacrificing too much graphics quality, I would like to get this settled out until I dish out the cash to open a new set of accounts.

Thanks in advance
