[Dedicated Server] Can you do it cheaper?
I would need something similar to http://datasoft.ws/ds_premiumdedicated.php ("Starter" Plan)
Ideally around 30$. No need for managed service, hdd space and ram not important.
Actually just want to know if this is even nearly possible.
Thanks!

Yes it is posible and i think if you search more you can get it.
Hey thanks for reply. Could you please link some offers you know? I searched a lot, but with no luck.
PS: We are talking about 2 x Intel XEON L5420 CPUs here. Just to make it clear.
Saying its possible without any extra input isn't much help.
You aren't likely to get it if you're just ordering 1 server or going for a month-month basis. If you're okay with paying every quarter maybe you might. It seems like you just need processing power, there are better cpu/cost processors out there.
The 2xL5639 and 2xL5650 were between 50-70$ before the crazy cpu mining spree happened. Those processors if you can get for that price are much better bang for your $
Do you need a US location? I can point you to much better offers for cheaper prices in EU.
Sure, just keep the links coming please. Thanks
That's what I've seen also.
Everything better then L5420 for that price is also good.
Here ya go : (the E3s are much better than the Dual L5420)
http://www.kimsufi.com/ie/
http://www.online.net/en/dedicated-server/dedibox-classic
http://oneprovider.com/dedicated-servers/paris-france
Kimsufi and Online.net are 30 Euros excl. Vat. That's too much for me right now.
I would rather have much less ram and hdd, but more processing power.
Oneprovider has the best packages sold out.
Thanks for the links tho, will keep an eye on Oneprovider.
Just one thing. Oneprovider's support is slow as hell. But anyways no other problems with them, they're just reselling from online.net.
Thanks for the info. So you don't recommend them?
Any other suggestions guys?
Where can you get a dual 5630 for that price range?
edit : it seem they have upgrade from 1 month ago -_-
We can do 2xL5630 for $74/month
Fliphost/CloudShards has a nice deal going on. 24GB RAM, Dual L5520, 10TB BW, 1TB HDD for $49.
Or check https://www.wholesaleinternet.net/dedicated/

OUT OF STOCK!
Thanks for the suggestions guys, but it's all over my budget of 30$. The first answers made me hope.. thanks anyway!
@DarioX what about Delimiter's Dual X5150, 16GB, 500GB - $20/month (paid quarterly) or $30/month (paid month-to-month)
@DarioX - Personally I wouldn't go with Delimiter. They cancelled my account when I complained about non delivery and then they cancelled my brothers order simply to be petty.
Additionally I recommended them on the biggest tech forum in my country and they disappointed users there too.

"Wow, I have never had such a terrible experience with a service provider before. I personally would not recommend Delimiter.
Their response was unprofessional and when I asked what checks were failed, they just closed the ticket."
However maybe you have a better experience than I did. Good luck!
Send in a sales ticket to Cloud Shards or Fliphost. Might be able to do something
We can get close to your budget in Atlanta.
Core 2 Quad Q9550
8 GB RAM
250 GB Hard Drive
5 IP addresses
20 TB Bandwidth / 1 Gbps Port
$39.99 per month
How much for 2 extra IPs?
From memory I think they're $1/ea with justification.
it's 2 dollar / ip I recall as I was reviewing my invoice this morning. Do note they are having massive delay due to ATL storm and my order from 28th Jan has not been updated. If you can wait for deployment it is a good deal but sadly it was beyond my estimation(I set 2 1/2 week aside for server deployment and it was not enough ).
$1 / IP .
I haven't had any issues at all with DelimiterVPS. They have been more than happy to help with every question I've asked and their responses are always timely.
As I said it was before the CPU mining spike. The regular players had L5639 for 50$, ie datashack and wholesaleinternet. Now that CPU mining has gone back to being mostly unprofitable through renting they have huge stock but won't put their prices back to their original.
The cheapest dedi with a decent cpu that I've seen would be datashack https://www.datashack.net/dedicated/ The AMD Phenom II x6 1045t plan is an alright CPU since it video encodes well so I guess other CPU intensive programs should perform well
sorry for the typo, I meant 5639... ready got a few 5630
Ah that, might be able to do 1 for $85. Prices have increased a lot these days.
