We have this server what can we expect to run?

[SaBRENT]

3200+ AMD Athlon64
1GB PC3200 Dual Channel
With Centos 4.3

we'd like to run:
- 40 man 66tic
- 20 man 66tic
- 10 man 66tic

We have our server currently set at 40 man, 66 tick - it default install + config + mani mod. we've reached 28 players with no issue server runs at a steady 25-35% CPU useage. and max of 49%

it seems that our pings spike to 100-300 but doesn’t seem to cause any lag, we have 100mb port - How can I reduce this, or stop it from occurring?

Machine can do max 50 slots at tr66 with high rates. Probably you are now running it at low rates.
