Guys,
I'm trying to figure out what would be a good dedicated server to go with. I searched forum but everyone seems to be talking about VPS and/or budget dedi servers.
My limit is ~1000$ /month.
So far I was thinking about either 100TB.com or giga-international.
Thanks!

What do you need it for
Softlayer? They offer great deals like double RAM & HD space and great discounts.
If you live near a datacenter it might be worth building your own server and paying monthly to host it. It'll save a lot of money in the long run.

so I'm pretty sure you don't need nearly as much as 1000$ per month to host one, with 200 - 250 bucks you can get yourself a quad core with 8 GB Ram and 100 mbit line, that's more than enough for about 2000 player (in average)
you can get a good server pc here : Intel Atom | Hivelocity Hosting - Dedicated Servers - Linux Dedicated Server - Windows Dedicated Server - Dedicated Server Hosting
it has low bandwidth but the hardware is very cheap, a game server doesn't need exceptionally high bandwidth
you can get a quad core with 8 GB Ram and 500 GB HDD with 100 mbit line for under 200 usd there
Just a tip, get on support and talk to them before you rent a server. If you act like you're on a small budget they'll lower your bill. ;)Quote:

Buy your own machine, or build it, and get a co-location on a local datacenter.
You will spend less than 1000 for sure, and if you rent a cabinet you can fit like 15 server for the same price.
