My multiboxing test

[kaiverrettu]

Running around with the 2600, I did the following test on 6 Rogues in the Gurubashi arena on the US Public Test Realms.

My load goes up to 50% and my temps about 64-60c with the smaller noctua cooler(with just one fan on. I don't want any additional airflow going towards my RAM or the Graphics Card, only for about 4-5c difference).

I have ran 9 accounts on trial accounts before: 10 accounts just seems to be like a torture to my system. At least I remember hitting 100c load quite easily then and I prefer to have some room for my browser/livestreams and so forth.

I ran on higher temps before I reduced the framerate of my non-main windows. Setting it to 1 caused some problems before so I have now put it to the lowest possible setting after 1 from the configurations panel, so temperatures and load dropped a bit with no noticeable effect on my multiboxing performance.

All in all, it seems to me that a proper 10-multiboxing, with browser and stream open, and using free software such as the Octopus, seems unreachable to me at this time, at least without overclocking the 2600 wich is not possible without the K version.

Despite this, the non K 2600 still packs a punch, allowing you to 8-9 still quite as easily, and without the need to overclock anything and/or buy an expensive cooler.
