Looking for a new server host.

[bojangels19]

I've some what narrowed my search to 3gb at fragnet or ovh Ks3. I'm not sure which one to go with and any input would be helpful.

5-10 players
FTB Unleashed

 

[bojangels19]

I have decided to go with a dedicated server and I'm stuck between these two servers. Both are 80$ a month.

Intel Xeon E3-1230 3.2GHZ
8GB DDR-3 1333MHZ
60 GB OCZ
100 Mbps Unmetered

vs

Intel Core I5 3450 3.1GHz
16GB DDR3
128GB SSD
20TB on 1Gbit Port

Well, do you think either of those will have enough space to store all your backups?

 

[bojangels19]

Backups I planned on downloading to my desktop, that is if you mean world backups. I'm new to the dedicated route so I'm trying to learn all I can.

 

[DZCreeper]

If you only plan on 5-10 players go with the first option with the Xeon.

 

[bojangels19]

Ok i'll give the Xeon a try thanks for your input.

 

[bojangels19]

The server with the Xeon is with Razorservers, I've seen a few negative reviews and before I ordered I wanted to get any input about them from people that have used them.

 

[DZCreeper]

Just some information before you rent, they only have 1 data center which is fine, but it is located in Atlanta.

 

[Connor Gavitt]

How much is the cost, take that into consideration.

 

[DZCreeper]

Second post in this thread says both are $80 US per month. Personally I would build by own server and have co-located for $50 per month, but not many people are willing to build their own server and go through shipping and such.

 

[Connor Gavitt]

I would go for the Larger hard drive BUT I would also prefer the intel E3 over the i5. They are on different packages so make your choice.

Here my idea I would say for speed and "power" the first one will work, however yep your limited by less than half the space for what you can store so this will work great for a high quality 10-30 slots server in which your CPU won't be throttling your actions on your server. However for the overhead and everything you will have about 6GB of ram for the server itself (of course this will variety server to server) so if you want a powerful box that the way to go. Oh and who can say no to unmetered bandwidth? The other one doesn't sucks but probably better if you wanna have say a couple of things say a minecraft server, web server, and a voice server all in one. The machine won't preform as well with that processor but it is not one of those garbage L5520 CPUs. Plus you get more storage and a bigger port, with a 20TB block that will work good actually.

Hello,
I am here to offer you a dedicated server with free support if needed and I have two options for you.

First option for $75 A Month:
Inter Xeon E3-1230V2 - 3.5GHZ
16GB DDR-3
120GB SSD
100 Mbit speed with unmetered bandwidth

The other option is you email me and we can discuss other hardware choices.
I looked at what you were offered and I tried to get a mixture of the both for a good price.

If you have any questions please add PPXhosting on Skype.
Or email [email protected]

For just 5-10 players I would go for the Xeon. If you ever plan on making your server public, I would go with the i5 and install TickThreading. Since the 1Gbit port, 16Gb RAM, and more storage would help.

What about this one instead? It's cheaper, support, and more!

 

[bojangels19]

I already chose a host but told ppx hosting that I would keep them in mind if my current host doesn't work out.

 

[PPX Hosting]

Thank you Harvest88, we offer great support with competitive prices. Bojangels19 has already chosen to host with someone else. But we still have a range of Dedicated Server we will be rolling out very shortly to the public.

If any of you are interested then please email me [email protected] or go to our website http://PPXhosting.com

Idk why but I am getting this.. Oops! Google Chrome could not find ppxhositng.com.. I am really going overboard If we need to pay 48 bucks for a 4GB server with a 0.1ghz slower processor. However I don't know how far your support will do and how fast tickets are responded to.

 

[PPX Hosting]

Sorry about that I misspelt my domain. As for your questions:

1. What are you currently paying for? The hardware.
2. Our support is excellent, we have 8 dedicated staff members ready to help at anytime.
3. We answer our support tickets normally straight away - but if we are not around then it is within an hour.

The correct domain is: http://PPXhosting.com

Please add our support chat on Skype: PPXhosting - to talk more.
