    other sites yes....... sky poker  no....  more than 1, 2 pushing it and games start playing up, lagging, timing out and tables open over other tables and freeze the lot of them...  :-(

    Its more to do with your processor, a really poor one will struggle to play 2 or 3. A half decent one will be able to 6 tables, any more than 6 you will need a good one. Extra Ram helps too.

    what pc are you looking to buy dtw.  I am also considering getting a new one.  Quite possibly today seeing as I`m struggling with 4 tables and its getting a bit frustrating now.

    AJS4385 - I saw not long ago an offer in aldi, Quad core processor, 4GB Ram, 1TB hard drive for £349. tower only.

    I was gonna get one but realised they sold out in about 5 mins.  When you say good processor, with a quad core or whatever its called with 4GB ram, will I be able to play like 10-12 tables.  I dont think I will get one at this price but if anyone knows any that are close I`d love to hear from you.

    How about this, seems like a powerful pc at a decent price.  Thoughts anyone.

    This one is only £50 more than the Aldi one I mentioned, but you get a 20" monitor thrown in as well.

    Ive read the spec, but not too sure about the graphics, ie, how many monitors could I run off this pc as standard.  I had to fit a graphics card to my current pc as it only had on board graphics, so could only run 1 monitor.

    I dont really want to go opening up brand new pc`s to fit graphics cards as I wouldnt trust myself ;-)

    Browser aswell, make sure you have up to date browser and up to date adobe flash player. Quit other apps/processes in the back ground whilst playing.

    The advent gaming pc will be more than you need, it all depends on your budget though. Ebuyer usually has some good bargains.

    Hey,

    I'm currently running Windows 7 with 3gb ram and Intel I-Core 5 processor

    With this I was able to multitable TKOII leg 4 (Omaha & NLHE) with both lobby's open and the forum with no probs at all, despite an intensive 1400+ players in both games!
