Dedicated Servers!

[ZadoAsh]

Anyone know of any CHEAP dedicated servers.

I can scrap togeather about $100 a month from myself and donations from my game.


So far the best I have found (by loads!) is Hostgator.com Dedi's... they offer so much for $140 though! Thats the problem. No set up fees. Cpanel. PHP4or5(YOU CAN SWITCH BETWEEN THE TWO!) MySQL etc etc all the stuff you'd want! Pre-installed. 5 IP Addresses I could go on... The proccesser is also good along with the RAM and HDD!

But I'm looking for something low budget with no set up fees and Cpanel(included in the price!)

Can anyone point me somewhere useful?

Btw... It can be any Control Panel but I have used Cpanel since I begun my web projects XD So its a personal perference.

I will be moving onto their servers soon brilliant prices its the best I've seen with low or 0 set up fees!

Part of it would depend upon your needs of course. But I've heard some mixed reviews of The Planet, even though I have a rack of servers in their Dallas colo I know that some people who rent machine space from them were disappointed that they received very little contact from them when there was a fire recently in their Houston location where they house many of those machines.

Another company I have heard nothing but good things about so far is Slicehost. I can't speak from personal experience about them though.

I found GoDaddy.com   ?40 a month (around $80)  It saves me couple of pound so I'm going for them.

I only need a dedicated server so i can work on a new site that requires some PHP extensions installed. My game would benefit from being on a dedicated server as well so yeah

Once I'm making the money I'll be going for a better unit.
