Is this sutible for 1 boxing 5 WoW?

[Arryth]

I have been quad boxing for a while on my new comp. I seem to be getting some lag in cities, and the occasional bit of lag out side.


1200 Watt Power supply.
EVGA nForce 680i SLI, Socket 775, PCI-E, DDR2
Intel Core 2 Quad processor q6600, quad 2.4 ght cores, 8mb L2 Cache.
4096MB Corsair Dominator DDR2-800
1GB Diamond HD 2900XT HDMI/HDCP Velocity Micro Performance Edition
2 x 400GB Hitachi 7200 rom 16mb cache SATA 300 w/NCQ - Raid 0

Is there any thing i can do with this system that would eliminate the bit of lag im getting while on all 5 toons at once. Any tips or tweaks on how to speed things up in general?

Any help would be welcome.

i runn 4 with ALOOOT lower than what you got.

i wudnt be suprised if youd get 10-50 wow's running on that pc

Ellay's fix for disabling the Nagle algorithm will sort out your latency.

The ATI 2900 series don't appear to be too great for Multiboxing, the Prefrence of most Multiboxers is the Nvidia 8800 Series.

So my card is the problem? If so is there any way I can tweak the card to perform multiboxing better?

Also.. What is this Nagle algorithm thing? And how can I use it to lower my latency.

Im kind of bummed.... when I had this machine built I thaught id have more then enough fire power to run 5 with out lag death.

Should I send this thing back to Velocity Micro and have them switch th ecards? Or is the thing redeemable. :cry:

Sorry your royalness, I did not realise that i wase not aproved of giving my 2 cents


just thought that if i can runn 4 on a 1 and 1/2 year old geforce 7600 that hed be able to do 5 with a X2900.

with one GB on the video card it should be a very good multiboxing card (but we all know that should and is can be two very different things)

What settings are you using? texture sliders etc?
what resolutions are your windows running at?
Do you have Anti Aliasing enabled?
have you set cpu priority on the wow instances?
XP or Vista?
How many monitors?

[Arryth]

Windows Vista ultamate. I have the graphic settings about mid way. My aa is set low. Im currently useing one monitor. I dont know how to set priority to an individual wow instance. On anoother note... i seem to be getting 60 fps with only three instances going.. In fact.. it gives mre 60 fps with just one running. I assume thats some sort of option somre here to change that??

All help is appreciated.
