How many can i multibox?

[Ashley]

4GB is plenty enough to 5-box. We used to do that on Q6600 quad cores before 64bit Windows and the i7 CPUs became popular. The biggest problems are the CPU and graphics. 9500s are mainstream GPUs. I suspect you can still multibox 4 WoW clients at super-low settings on all 4 and a minimal addon setup. For the newer games, I think you'll be hard pressed to run more than 2, maybe 3.

I can't 5 box on my laptop anymore like I used to and I used to use a dual core, 4GB ram and 512mb graphics.

I 5-box comfortably on:

- core2duo
- 8meg RAM
- 8500 graphics card (512 meg)
- standard HDD
- Windows 7 premium 64bit

5 was a little painful with 4gig, which is why I upgraded windows and RAM, but you'll be able to run 2/3 instances comfortably.

Your constraints should be fixed in this order:
-operating system to 64bit
-RAM
-CPU
-Graphics card
-HDD
