Teck Nine	Posted - 2010.08.25 20:04:00 - [1] Edited by: Teck Nine on 25/08/2010 20:05:44 I thought they would have gone with AMD 6 core or 12 core server CPU rigs. I think the 6 core 4 CPU ports can suport up to or around 165GB of ram or at least use a 6 core CPU in the server rig. I'm kinda disappointed in the new server specs tbh.
Teck Nine	Posted - 2010.08.26 05:45:00 - [2] Tried jita out for the 3rd time and once again still no lag even when you guys were using the old stuff. Either my internet connection is fast to help counter the lag problem or my comp's specs are beyond what the average eve online player has. IMO I think its because the rig I built is a beast. I sunk over $400 just for the ram alone and using a 6 core black edition not o/c and running at 3.2GHz. I have My gaming rig online, 1 comp downloading stuff most the time and playing my P3 online with no problems. Alot of people who play this game is using ADSL or Dile-up

Sorry for posting 2 times but its easier to read this way because some people don't want to read a long thing.

Alot of people who play this game is using ADSL or Dile-up Report to CCP and become a <system> node. Actually entertained this idea for about 5 minutes with an mmo tech I was creating. Not gonna work very well. In theory if there was no latency and no bandwidth limits across the Internet, having the client be a node could work great, but even then you have serious security issues with this setup. Which of course is unfortunate or CCP could've tapped into a lot of nice customer hardware for running their game ;) Free cpu cycles 4tw Haha actually there are games that do that. Doesn't the PS3 also use the same method for gaming is using People's PS3 as kinda a game server since in COD MW2 if a person's doesn't have a good enough connection they usaly get dropped and it looks for a new host. I think once they get the game to a point where it would be costly to upgrade their server then they might start to make people's comp help take some of the load. Originally by: Spatula King If they use an AMD, it would work better. The 1090Ts are way faster than any Intel chip, and then you have the Opterons which are even faster. here's a rough list on the cost of AMD CPUs 1 - AMD 1090T6 Core 3.2GHz, 6MB Cache, 2000MHz (4000 MT/s ) FSB,Socket AM3, Processor would cost around $329.97 2 - AMD Opteron 2435 Six-Core Processor - 2.60GHz, Socket F, 6MB L3 Cache - $1300 3 - AMD Opteron 2431 Six-Core Processor - 2.40GHz, Socket F, 6MB L3 Cache - $900 4 - AMD Opteron 6172 Magny-Cours 2.1GHz 12 x 512KB L2 Cache 12MB L3 Cache Socket G34 115W 12-Core Server Processor - $1,070.00 With numbers 2 and 3 there's server boards that suport 2 to 4 CPUs and cau suport up to 165GB of ram and it also supports the new DDR3 type of ram. For the 12 core there's boards that support 1 to 2 CPUs and can suport around 65GB of ram and it supports the new DDR3 ram. So as you can see there are alot of options to make a powerful server rig that can deal with alot of load.

I know AMD 1090T isn't a server CPU I put that there to give some people the idea of the price difference is between the Desktop CPU, the 6 core server CPU and the 12 core server CPU
