So how would you host a 64 slot without lagging the shit out of it? O_O

33 tick, tank of a server, right rates, and just get on your knees and prey!

To be honest, you don't need to set it to one core, let windows do that. Again, set the server to 66 tick, 33 is preferred, and set the correct rates as well. Have a descent connection, nice server, should be fine.

Running 64 slots really revolutionizes Multiplayer Gaming in the fact that you are playing with soo many other people, in some cases, you will never be alone in a map. There will always be an enemy near.

Ok, there is really no point in having more that 4 gb of ram for one srcds server, the 32 bit application will not see all 32 gb and will only see about 3.7 gb. Also srcds is only a single threaded application so it can only use one core at a time. If you are going to have more than 3 servers on that box you will want to reserve a core just for the 64 slot monster. Also i learned from my friend in the GSP buisness that multiple srcds' will not see all of the 32gb of ram, it will only see 1byte- 3.7 gb for all of them so really having over 4gb is useless.
