What can I run?

[Camaro_d00d]

Hello,

I'm going to be purchasing a new server soon. It will be a Dell PowerEdge 1435, with 2x Opteron 2220 CPU's @ 2.8GHz and 2GB of DDR2 RAM. I did research however I cannot find any details anywhere for what this CPU can run. I reckon it should be able to pull off a 56 slot 66tick CSS ZombieMod server with Unlimited Ammo easily though, should it not? It will also run RedHat Linux Enterprise 4.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well I would say 2.8ghz Operton should be able to hold 50-60 slots. So with 4 cores total, probably 200-240 slots. Now that is normal slots with Zombie Mod server I really dont know. But 56 definity.
Btw, You need a lot of bandwidth to not bottleneck this server's performence.

Cheers for your reply.

I'll let you know how well it runs once I get the server up and running. Hopefully it'll be a great improvement from the Netburst-based 3GHz Single Core Xeons I'm running.

As far as bandwidth, I have plenty of it. The server is connected via dual GBit lines. It's hosted by CarpathiaHost.

Sounds good. But remember this is an estimation so if you can run less or even run more dont be suprised.
