Game Server

rsprinkel · January 15th, 2006, 12:17 AM

Hi all,

Want to go the route of getting a Dedicated Server for Game Hosting.

I would like to be able to lease Game Servers (6 for now) but am unsure of the details of what package to get, and how to go about doing it. Would like to start out small and work up as time goes by.

The 2 types of games I would support are Nascar Racing 2003 Season and rFactor.

ANY Help on this would be VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.

Thanks,
Ron

Ron,

For gaming I recommend any server in the section of

"Enterprise Level Servers"

http://www.surpasshosting.com/servers.php

any in that section should suffice the needs for most games

What about RAM needs? I remember reading on here in the past about online gaming servers needing a bunch of ram.

**Emmanuel** · January 15th, 2006, 4:20 AM

yea all enterprise level servers come with minimum 1gb ram

and upgradeable to 2gb ram

for a start 1gb should be alright
