What makes a stable tickrate and allows more slots?
#1
I am trying to build a powerhouse server and then colocate it, can someone tell me what determines what makes a tickrate 100 stable and the best reg when it comes to hardware? I am not talking about internet connection, obviously that plays a factor but I am purely talking about hardware at the present moment.

CPU Cache? Faster RAM? etc?

you obviously need a dual core..single would do but its not suffice.

i would prefer a quad core or a xeon 2.8 or above a good 3-4gb ram.

Let me know if any1 needs a server i will give a very good price...

I know what the requirements are, I am just saying, what factors into the performance?

The thing that Srcds is mainly reliant on, is High CPU core speed. Go for the highest core speed you can get. +3.0ghz

So if I overclock a CPU to 4.0 Ghz, will my server run smoothly without tickrate drops?

if you overclock make sure you have enough cooling specially if its a dedicated 24/7 server, also make sure its stable and wont randomly crash/reboot...overclocking wont give you too much performance boost as how many cores you have plays a bigger role and not the core speed itself.

Shut up when, you don't know what you are talking about......

SCRDS is single thread, meaning that it does not care about multiples cores. Pure core speed is the important thing.

Lmao, cooling and stability isn't a problem. I am just wondering what I should look for when I buy my hardware.

High core speed, and enough memory. A scrds server takes around 300mb memory when under load.
