Cheap CSS Gaming Server

[GeneralGeForce]

Hoping to run 2 52-man CSS Servers (ZombieMod/ZombieEscape) when i get enough money to buy a server then relocate it. Just wondering what the prices would be about to buy a server (U1 rack) because ive been looking on dell and theyve got:

Dell r210:

Intel i3 3.06 Ghz
4GB DD3
500GB, SATA, 3.5-in, 7.2K RPM Hard Drive

£404 without Postage

Just wonderin if this is a good price for a U1 server to host these games on or if there are any cheaper options and if you could build your own U1 server (which I doubt).

Regards, A. Nab

probably too slim for 52 slot servers...

the price sounds ok, but I don't have direct references. try googling a bit to get a market overview. that's much better than asking...

on the other hand: I don't know how the situation is in UK, but in Germany it's usually equal expensive to colocate a tower server, and those are much cheaper.
