I've run three on it using (wow, it was censored?) Another multiboxing software. I don't have SLI now, but my first two cards were in SLI. I just have one now.

I have 4GB of RAM installed, but windows xp 32 bit can only see 3GB. Upgrading to 7 soon I hope.

I know this thread is very old but I thought it might be better to refresh an old thread than to create an old one on a topic already addressed. Have there been any developments on this? I have a crazy idea in mind (details at a later date) that would truly benefit from this feature. I have been using pwnboxer for only a short time and it has turned me from dual boxing to 5 boxing from it's ease of use.

Hey there, well currently PB lets you do 10 box, but internally to PB, it supports 256 games. On development builds I've done 70+ on 1 PC

I'm definitely going to re-evaluate networked Pwnboxer in the future. I'll probably do a poll or something to see what people think.

If you can support networking, I'd suggest including it.

Today, its probably cheaper to go with a single PC that can 10-box smoothly, than to build two PC's that each 5-box.
But if someone has older hardware that they already own, networking them together so they run two clients on one, two more on another and the last on a laptop... is a very nice feature to have.

Even a program as small as Keyclone supports this, and has since the very beginning; it cannot be that hard to code.
You'd have limitations of course, if Slot 1-2 are rendered on PC A and Slots 3-5 are rendered on PC B, you won't be able to region swap to 3-5 from PC A.
