So, I have a p4 1gb ram 64mb gforce adsl internet connection.
It is fine if I run only 1 client, but I like to use an alt as support, after revelations patch I got more lock-ups, and slow game than ever.
So, I am going to buy a new pc, this one is pretty old ( the ram memory is a recent upgrade), let me state a few points.
How much ram memory do I need to run 2 cliente with a good speed? 2gb?
And what about my 3d graphic card? 256mb gforce is fine?
P4 is ok? or do I need a dual core pentium?
thanks in advance

Sounds like a pretty good box to me.
My specs are below yours and I run 2 clients pretty much all the time. Seems like you should try a fresh windows installation first, even if that doesn't sort it out and you still need a new box the old one will be fresh to continue it's drudgery and the new one can be dedicated solely to EVE

Yes, but with the current state of the game I wouldn't recommend doing that on any box.

to speed up your game lower your graphics settings, turn off sounds, turrets and effects.

Your system seems ok except for the lack of Graphics card RAM. 64MB of GPU/GFX ram is small.
I have an AMD 3200+ with 1GB RAM (2x512MB in dual channel mode) and that has an ATI 9600XT 128MB RAM graphics card. It runs two clients at 30-40 fps most of the time.
If you want to upgrade your computer I would borrow a friend's graphics card with at least 128MB RAM, then see how your pc is.
P4 is not quite as efficient as the AMD at accessing RAM but I doubt that is your limiting factor here.
What model GFX card do u have? If its AGP then maybe you should read this link AGP New Cards Reviewed And Tabled
Good luck.

Most important hardware figure for Eve performance is the CPU to RAM bandwidth to help absorb a bit of those crazy stutters Eve suffers from. Everything else is peachy once you get this maxed - should be looking for atleast 10 GB/s. 100 GB/s might be enough to make PVP fun again ...

Wait a few months and then get a PC witha videocard built for DX10. When the new graphics engine comes out it will make you happy.
Other than that, aviod boards with Realtek on-board HD audio. With the sound on Eve dies. There is a 4-page thread on this and as of yet no dev or GM has said anything about the issue.

Well i recently did the same so i can only tell u my personal exp.
I bought a new rig with a Core 2 duo E6300 and 1 gig of ram.
The vidcard was a piece of elephantdung i knew that from the start but it came with the rig.
today (yes hahahaaa) i pimped my rig with some new yarrdware.
I added another stick of ram (i now have 2 gigs) and replaced the ****e vidcard with a Geforce 7600GT with 256 vid ram
And the system is running soooo smooth, it almost made me cry when i started up the 2nd client and set both clients to the highest settings.
around 150 to 175 fps on a single client in station, 120 fps per client when running 2 accounts in station and around 50 to 60 fps when undocked (both clients)
So there u go, wish u good luck with ur new rig and may yours run as smoothly as mine.
Resized tag... again... hope this pleases the tag ninjas from ccp... again :p

full agrro , 2 clients on same pc tend to make graphic lag , but its still doable.
but u do get a 2 seconds lag when full agroo hits on 1 of ur clients.
i think its some sort of network lag.

Yeah, I heard something about that, after Kaly the game more laggy and less doable with two clients on the same machine.
