      i want to mass bot. but when i run 4 or more , it seems to lag/lockup(wow screen) . the locking up might of been caused by using Arelog.

      what I see is that your PC isn't great, but should be powerful enough to run 5+ clients without any problems.
      What I also see is that you are using a masive amount of CPU and RAM for just a single client.
      there are a few guide on how to lower your CPU and RAM use in the guide section of this forum, but in a short list. Delete all your addons, put all settings on lowest as possible (there are trics to get lower then low setting)

      if you really want to upgrade your PC (what I don't recommand change settings first) you should need to think about upgrading your CPU. the xeon 1230v2 is a greate choice. it's around the 230 euro and very powerfull. don't upgrade your gpu and your ram because 12g of ram is more then enough for 10 clients.

      o and you don't need to rename HB this is honorbuddy not piroxbot :)
