Dedicated Server

[Mr Evil]

Hi im thinking in buying a dedicated server for my ot..
i found this one

AMD Duron 1300

512 MB DDR-RAM

60 GB Hard Drive

500 GB Bandwidth

i just have some questions..
how much players do you think i can have without lag?
should i use it with linux or windows?

 

[Saj]

you could host like 100 players max..

 

[Merchant]

Well, you will be able to carry about 70 players...
, and about the systems humm, I have no clue...

 

[Anothai]

You should use Linux =]
Mucho better =þ
I think you can get up to 130 players

 

[Mr Evil]

Thanks alot
Ill be buying my dedicated server soon, probably buying a bigger one

512 mb ram are you kidding

 

[KaczooH]

@Ragone - mb is not the same as mB so use them properly

@Topic - This server sucks indeed. The cpu has an old architecture which isn't as efficient as new (like one in Core 2 family or even X2 family of AMD). But as the patch from avesta for CPU bug has been released, it may be not that bad to use it for hosting. The RAM will be enough if you use Linux based OS (WinXP will be laggy I think).

HUh

Thanks, ill compile my server for linux

How could you say a number of players?
Amd Duron isn't so powerfull, the HD is small and only 512 MB Ram, and he hasn't yet give the details of the uplink.. How can you say the ammount of players that he can get without lag?
.................

 

[KaczooH]

The HDD doesn't matter alomost at all as far as I know. Saying the number of players that may be keeped without lags is pointless because it depends mainly on connection (ping too). CPU sux but it may be enough after avesta patches for keeping ~40-60+ players. MAYBE.

 

[Mr Evil]

Stop figthing ! xD
Its ok atleast 50 players..
ill buy this dedicated for 1 month and ill have a player limit of 50, when i get enough money from bux.to ill move to another server. =)

 

[KaczooH]

Bux.to will be at "request in audit" for some months so I don't think that you will get money from it Maybe invest now in some P4 @ ~1.8 so it wouldn't be much more expensive but faster for sure. My old Duron 1000 is "laggy" at Windows (with 512mB RAM on board) and you cannot run there even tibia+winamp so...

 

[Mr Evil]

Could u post a link to it?

 

[KaczooH]

I don't really know where are you from. In Europe the OVH services are well-known and generally good. Use google to find something what you can afford This one, which you've posted, in-deed sux but maybe it would be good at the very start of your ots.

 

[Adrish]

512 ram is not accepted.

Only 45 players....

 

[KaczooH]

It depends on the size of the map! With linux without any other programs it would handle more.

Edit: I'm impressed with how precission you are saying the number of players that this server will be able to keep .

 

[Deaktiver]

How much do you pay for this Server per month?
I found a Server with 1024 MB RAM (Linux ofc) and 20€ per month..I can send you the link if you need it..

 

[Mr Evil]

Yeah i found it to its ovh right?
Anyways thanks...
Problem solved..
Close thread please..
