[dualcore1289]

hello there, i rented a server, heres the specks on it. . .
* Intel X3060 Dual-Core Xeon 2.4Ghz
* 2GB DDR2 RAM, Support for up to 8 GB of system memory
* 160GB HDD, Support for up to 6 Hard Drives (Raid 0, 1, 5, 10)
* 1500GB Transfer, Upgradeable to Unmetered
* 10Mbps Uplink, Upgradeable to 100Mbps

i have the 10mbps uplink, can this server handle these servers. . .
1 20 slot 100 tick css server
2 16 slot 100 tick css and dods server
2 18 slot 100 tick css and cod4 server
1 18 slot 75 tick css server

Maybe you should try to calculate a bit yourself, it's not that hard, I've given the amount of bandwidth used per slot on a certain tickrate multiple times.

And once again, you can't run a full quality 100 tick above 18 slots (unless you know exactly what you are doing).

but can the cpu handle it?

if those are full most of the time you'll run out of bandwidth fast! the 10Mb port may be a choke point as well if the servers are busy at the same time.

anyone know of a fairly cheap but yet good dedicated server host?

[fqdn]

you can have cheap hosts but their bandwidth providers may not be up to snuff for gaming as there are different levels of network providers too. where are you looking to host this thing? you can probably find something decent in chicago or texas, i'm not too familiar with east coast providers.

Just saying, a 10 mb port will not hold all those servers running :/. Colocrossing is amazing and I would totally recommend them.
