Most important hardware when backtesting
No idea about backtesting (as it should be fast in anyway) but as to optimization - use Cloud. It is cheaper and faster.
Something to read:

- And this website (this is the key website for agents): Frequently Asked Questions: payment and Distributed Cloud Network
- Article about many kinds of optimization with dependance of Cloud for example MQL5 Cloud Network: Are You Still Calculating?
- Visual testing of EA with indicator's template (in russian sorry)
- and I optimized many EAs using Cloud - read here How to Start with Metatrader 5 and here PriceChannel Parabolic system

If it is really back testing not optimization, you can do this:
1. Install meta trader on ramdisk <------ That will make history collection as fast as possible.
2. Get CPU who is most productive per core. (On single back test your system will use only one core) You could probably over-clock it, but be sure about OC risks, before you do that.
