temple13 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Hello guys, I just want to know if I have a medium-good PC to host the server, but ONLY the closed/open beta that i'll do soon. The LIVE server wont be in my PC, just the closed/open beta PC: CPU: Intel® Core i5-2500 CPU @ 3.30GHz, 3292 MHz (QUAD CORE) RAM: 8GB RAM (DDR3-1333) HDD: 1 TB (right now I have 500GB free, but i'll format soon) NET: 15 MB of internet OS: Win 7 - 64 bits Of course, if I host the beta here, the PC will be ONLY and exclusive for the server, i'll play with my another PC. And also, I wanna know what do you think about this dedicated host: http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produkte_rootserver/ex5 I'm looking for a good-cheap host to start the server, because I want to host it till the first day it will be Live, but I have X money, when the money dissapear I cant pay it with my money anymore, that's why I want a stable-good-cheap host (if its possible) Thanks you guys, Regards.

Simmo Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 No. Go and research multi-tasking operating systems and how a single CPU handles tasks ... then you will know why people use a server and not a home pc. Quote
CriticalError Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Windows Server 2008 rules, never use Home or Premium SO for servers, read more guides and information in the forum, you can found everything you need know about that ;) gl Quote
NotAbastard Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Bad OS, Ram not enough for sure, and I don't think you have enough processing power For the closed beta/open beta I guess you could do your job, it will be laggy but it's a testing phase anyway so if your users are dedicated I dont think they'll mind but for a solid server you must rent a solid machine , and use this one to edit the server files.

TildaO Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Bullshit dude, I have x2 times worse pc then you if not x4 times and I could handle 50 players with out lags. With this pc and another OS good connection I believe your pc will hold for over then 100 players with out problems. Do not listen to those people. I saw same pc as you have in a dedicated offer so yeah what more to say. Quote
Simmo Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Everybody seems to miss the point that server hardware is different ... lrn2computers Quote

mcbigmac Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 It's entirely fine up to a certain point. You have to define that point. I'm travelling 600 miles north. If i have to get their fastest - i might take a ferrari. If i'm sick and i don't have a time frame, i might get a long-range limousine. To get their the most comfortably. It's all fukkin relative. The absolute most important part however, is that commercial consumer lines are absolute crap and on the absolute lowest end of a networkrouting exchange's "budget". Your 15 mbit up or down, is theoretical at best - AND is extremely limited in terms of where there's free 15 mbit/sec from routing point to routing point. You'll end with an extremely slow and non-responsive PC for L2Off however. And most likely a deadlocked one if your run GF Off. Quote
Fanky Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 too bad Net. and I don't think you have enough processing power ++ Quote
temple13 Posted April 30, 2012 Author Posted April 30, 2012 Everyone commented about my PC, and i'll host the closed beta on it, but can someone says me something about this dedicated server? http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produkte_rootserver/ex5 Or maybe someone knows a BETTER and, the most important, STABLE dedicated server? Thanks, Regards. Quote
tsoukis Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 cant handle a server with that pc .....really no chance unless u wanna play u and your friend :) Quote
liviudev Posted May 13, 2012 Posted May 13, 2012 NET: 15 MB of internet? Download or upload? Your system cofig. is good. You only need a good upload speed from your internet provider. With your 15MB bandwith speed you can handle up to 300 online players. ;) Quote
Zeon® Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Dedicated of course. If you haven't money do it homerade. Quote
