Dedicated machine or vps that can run vmworkstation?

ramo55

As the title suggests, I need a dedicated machine or a vps that is able to run VM Workstation on windows.
I've had lots of offers, all of which either don't work, out of stock, or the speed is too slow to even rdp into the machine.

No sane person willingly does this instead of using ESXi, and RDP makes it worse due to the way VMX stuff works. Please explain in detail what you are doing.

So what would I need to use or buy to run ESXi? a dedicated machine? And I run windows on each machine with different configs as I test my 2d platform game

You can run VM with W10, W7, W8, etc to test while you make your game in ESXi.

You cannot run VMware on a VPS at all. Dedicated only.
