HWID Question

01/29/2022 17:09 RagingHacks1#1
So I have been banned on rust I'm assuming it's HWID ban, but my question is if I get a new CPU and install it will it get be banned for being put in my pc or does it ban when I run rust. I'm not looking to play Rust anymore I just want a new CPU but I don't want to install it if it will be banned.

The way the bans work on Rust (EAC) is that more serials get banned than just your CPU alone. So to answer your question, technically yes it would be banned, because you haven't changed out your drives and other parts that they track (mobo serials, mac addresses, what not).

If you don't plan on playing Rust again, I would just put in the new CPU, and should you change your mind consider using a spoofer for the times you do want to play

EAC does not pull any unique cpu identifiers. Should be perfectly safe :-)
