Something Different... WoW Multiboxing

[beztoken]

So I don't really see much advice on things like this, and only little support within the community itself and I'd like to ask some stuff here.

 

Alongside AAA games, I also like to multibox some games (World of Warcraft, Diablo 3 etc...), which simply means running multiple clients of the game and playing them simultaneously. I use ISBoxer Suite to do this.

 

Here's a quick rundown of a recent update on WoW regarding multithreading. Here are the system recs. In ISBoxer Suite there are CPU Strategies for how you'd like to dedicate your cores. 

 

 

Here's an example. I currently only have a 4690k, a 1070 ti, and 32gb ram with the game on an SSD. The majority of the time, with 5 clients, I'd reach 100% CPU usage when there are a lot of animations, and in loading screens. My CPU strat is all CPUs with every window (last option). I also have set my clients to run on D11.

 

In the future, I'd like to have a lower CPU usage while idle, or low action, and while under heavy load like during loads. I would also like to add more accounts/clients to this in the future. What would be a recommended option? I'd assume a higher core count CPU, like the threadripper, would be better, but i'm not entirely sure about this. I'm no expert when it comes to this, but if any additional information is required, I'm happy to provide it. The game runs fine when I'm playing just one client :).
