Possible to run 5 EQ2 sessions at once

Post by Methodica » Mon Aug 29, 2005 3:28 pm

Currently I can run 3 eq2 sessions on one computer with my current setup. It an AMD3500 with 2 gigs of Ram and a Geforce 6800. Im going to upgrade it soon to 4 gigs of Ram and I wondering if you think its possible to run 5 sessions then. I know I will have enough Ram to do it but Im not sure if my cpu can handle it. Obviously everything will be at the lowest settings.

Has any tried that running 5 or more sessions before on one computer without problems?

Well, I believe Windows XP caps out at 3GB unless you're using 64-bit XP.

I think it's definitely a possibility to run 5. You'll want to have sessions at "extreme performance" or whatever it is in EQ2, but with the built-in FPS limiting it shouldnt be too bad. It would be loads better with rendering limiting, but that's only in EQ1 unless someone develops an EQ2 for extension that specifically does it.
