I require a VPS preferred 2GB to run smoothly..
I looked at some 7$ deals but most were not stable servers.
I found one reliable vps provider following the comments chicagovps 7$ but its offer had expired..
Now i am looking for a vps at the same price nearly with 2GB RAM..
Please recommend me what to go for or what to do..
I know my budget us low compared to my needs but i cant afford much from my pocket money..

Hope to see some positive replies.

Thanks,
RJ

  • What do u want to run on your VPS?

  • InfinityInfinity Member, Host Rep

    Why do you need 2GB RAM?

    2GB RAM isn't really considered a Low End Box imo and for $7.

  • You can go for an identical offer at the following address-

    http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1092388

    Disclaimer: I have no experience with that Host.

  • i need to run a lot of websites...
    @infinity some people really provide good service at that price..

  • You can run websites on a 1GB VPS

  • And on 128MB =)

  • ya but i need to install even control panel and all..
    And i will run drupal,wordpress,opencart, they will consume a lot of memory

    rishav_jalan lied: @infinity some people really provide good service at that price..

    Show me 'those people', and anyway if you know 'those people' why are you asking here?

    I run about 10 fairly big websites with optimized mysql, nginx and php-fpm on CentOS and hardly use more than 300mb on OVZ, if it is Xen or KVM etc. it would be much less.

    What CP, you don't need more than 512MB tbh.

  • its not a repeat..
    In that thread i was asking about who can fit in all my various features requirements(very much constrained), and there i was looking for a vps constrained to accepting credit cards,LR,AP only..

  • Are you looking for 2gb with no burst, or 1gb with 2gb burst, since there is absolutely no difference between the two. That is the key to these 2gb offers, marketing manipulation and hopefulness you are not really paying attention.

  • i am looking for 2gb dedicated..burst should hopefully be atleast 2gb..

  • 2GB is sure alot for USD7 / mth. =P

    Thanked by 1Infinity
  • ok what about 1-1.5GB Dedicated and 2GB Burstable..

  • can i get that for this price...

    I am so not getting into this poster's pipe dream. I'm too far behind on stuff.

    I will point out that at least they're not asking for managed service at that price.

  • If you using nginx/php-fpm/xcache (or APC), you won't need 2GB of ram. It's such a waste, and the node isn't going to have great performance.

  • KuJoeKuJoe Member, Host Rep

    Assuming a node has 32GB of RAM, 2GB dedicated @ $7/month will be about $103 income after payment fees. Minus SolusVM licenses and 1 IP per VPS that's down to about $77. Cheapest colocation I've seen for a 1U server is $40/month so you're looking a $37/month profit per hardware node. Assuming the node cost you $1000, it will take you 2.25 years (not including interest) to make a profit off of that server.

    Good luck to you and the company you host with. :)

    You get cheaper if you get a rack. I'm paying $600/month per rack but I'm also paying for my bandwidth and electric drops separately. (Both were too small for what I needed.) Heck, I don't even use the datacenter's crash cart. :)

    $600/month for rack without power and bandwidth?

  • drmikedrmike Member

    Well, the power (12 amp I think?) and bandwidth (100mb/sec linked to the house pool) drops are still there and active. I'm just not using them. That does include a partial class c as well as 5 hours hands for each month for each rack.

    edit: It a bit higher than market but it's also local to me.

    reedit: It's 20 amp. Just found the sales sheet.

  • KuJoeKuJoe Member, Host Rep

    Well if that includes 100Mbps and 20A @ 208v then that's pretty damn good.

  • KuJoe said: 20A @ 208v

    While easy to get a custom quote from any DC for that, it is never quoted in the US like that, I've always seen full racks include 20A @ 110V, I think once I saw 20A @ 208V after they listed 1/2 rack with 10A @ 110V then full rack with 20A @ 110V

    But yeah, anything under $1,000 with 20A and 50-100mbit seems about the average going rate. Seen as low and $500 upto $1200, so it's an expected range.

  • I run a 10k UV/day picture rich site which uses 600mb with DA installed as well. I'm curious what you're planning.

  • Pictures are static though. Do they really increase memory and processor usage?

  • KuJoeKuJoe Member, Host Rep

    If they are cached I would think so but even then not by much.

  • {humor}Depends on if it is a porn site like the doc's or not. {/humor or lack there of}

  • KuJoe said: Assuming the node cost you $1000, it will take you 2.25 years (not including interest) to make a profit off of that server.

    Greedy hosts, 2.25 years would be a good payback time anywhere else :P

  • They're cached to the max. but yes, a lot of traffic doesn't increase memory by much.

    Capital equipment last longer then 36-60 months in most other industries.
