Personal Dedicated Server?

Hi,

I'd like a personal dedicated server to just mess around with. Anyone on LET who can do this under $40/mo?

The absolute bare minimum:

128GB SSD
CPU Score: >6500
Network: 5TB/mo, 100mbps
16GB DDR4 RAM
Good uptime.

I want to use this server for a long time. The specs above are the minimum. No WSI, Nocix, or dodgy/unreliable ISPs.

    +1 for @drserver. I've got 4 dedicated servers with them. Network, hardware and price are excellent. Their support is A+++ (talking about 2-3 minutes to clear a ticket, not just acknowledge it). You can't go wrong with them.

  • @drserver is one of the friendliest and most professional hosts I've used. (circa 2014).
    $50 is cheap considering the level of service, and the bandwidth mix you're getting . (price is par for the USA; lock in that price with a 12/24/36 mo contract)

  • If you only consider DDR4 based systems, then the cheapest option is the EX42-NVMe, I believe. If you remove that silly requirements, then Hetzner has multiple E3 and i7 based systems, and so does SeFlow. Increasing your budget a bit, you have ReliableSite's i5 in 3 US locations, OneProvider's i7, OVH's Game servers, the ones mentioned in this thread and many other options.

    Will the price always stay the same?

    For you, yes, if you are paying $50 every month, this will continue until you cancel.
