Looking for good server for labs

i'm looking for a dedicated server for vmware labs ..
specs :
1 or 2 Xeon based CPU at least 6 core with intel vt and hyperthreading active ( 12 thread ) and must compatible with vsphere 6 ( http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=cpu ).
RAM : 96GB or more
Harddisk : usable capacity at least 500GB with RAID 1 or 1TB with RAID 5 ( SSD cache is a plus but not a must , i can go with 15K RPM or 10K RPM disks )
IP : Minimum 3 IPv4 Address ( excluding remote management ip )
Ethernet Port : minimum 1 port active , if possible 2 port or more with load balancing on the switch ..
B/W : 1TB or 2TB
Speed : best i can get as long as i can do some remote desktop/VPN to the server..
management : remote management ( ILOM, ILO,idRAC,CMM or similar services ) so i can install and reinstall the server ...
No Setup Fee
Budget : $100/month ( monthly payment only ) ..
location : anywhere with a good speed to asia / indonesia
support : standard support like if disk failure it will get replace at 24-48hours etc .. but sometimes i will do a lab sessions with my friends or customers so i will need support to standby during lab sessions periods if theres something wrong with the hardware ( i will expect a 15minutes - 60minutes respond when doing some lab sessions ). I will inform at least 3 days before i do a lab sessions ...
time : maybe i will start this next month .. still looking for all possibilities ..
This server will be used only for private VMware labs, i will install VMware vSphere 6 on the server and create a labs there with nested virtualization so it will not consume a lot of network resources ( only when i need to access it ). I already have all the vmware licenses that i will used (its legal) ..
is it possible to get it within my budget ?
sorry for my bad english ...
