I pay €35/mo for a 32GB RAM, 8-core, 2x SSD dedicated server with unlimited traffic. Elixir flies on that.
- sodapopcan 4y agoAwesome, thanks for the info!
- intelVISA 4y agoKinda expensive when I checked their offerings. They charge €40pcm for an i7-4770, 32GB RAM, 2x SSD which can be bought for around €100 from any IT surplus (given it's around a decade old) and thrown in a libre/GPL colo at your local hacker space for single digits pcm.
- markatto 4y agoThat’s not their best hardware deal, but you also have to understand that you are paying for rack space, electricity, bandwidth, on-site staff for repairs, etc. They are actually absurdly inexpensive compared to competitors.
- intelVISA 4y agoFair, I looked at their other offerings and saw current gen specs at competitive rates - in that case we are agreed that's a lot better than most others.
- sph 4y agoI got a i7-7700k which is more recent and cheaper than that, so it's overall a good deal. EDIT: just the mobo, CPU and RAM is $300 on eBay. And let me know which hackerspace has a dedicated maintenance team, SLA guarantees, unlimited traffic. Apples and oranges. I'm trying to run a business here, not run a Minecraft server. Should I really be penny-pinching on what is $50/mo? It's two pizzas, at current market rates.
