I've been running 4 tf2 servers and a few l4d servers on previous gen opterons (2220 and similar). I haven't been impressed compared to the same gen xeons. We're lucky to get a full 24 slot server per core without noticing problems. 32 slot is not possible. Centos 5,FYI Been very happy w

Hi, (Sorry about the bump...) Asking about the X4200 was probably too specific. Can anyone comment on running HLD/SRCDS on the AMD Opteron platform in general? Any performance issues, pros or cons, etc.? Thanks, Dave David A. Parker wrote: > Hello, > > I was wondering if anyone h

I use one virtual L4D server (Xen, Linux as both the host and guest OS), which mainly operates in campaign mode, so serves up to 4 players. The host machine is an old IBM server with dual 1.3GHz P3 CPU (Coppermine) and a RAID5 array with SCSI disks, 3 units. The virtual (guest) machine has the

Good point. I don't want to find myself in need of a better server in 6-month so a year even. I'd like to be able to leave this server running for quite a long time. Would I maybe be better off getting a machine like I listed to JUST run TF2 (1 game) and then another same or even with less pow

Are we talking about a multi-core like Dual Core or Quad Core? I am trying to watch how much I spend, but I don't want to spend too little and get screwed in a few months or a year. Right now my group only plays L4D (some of us have been playing TF2 for a long time), but we are slowly getting

Assuming you're talking about the old single core Xeons here, but depending on the player slots on TF2, but a machine with those specs really won't be up to scratch at all. To give you an indication, anything over 16 players on a TF2 server running on a 3.4Ghz Xeon causes noticeable in-game pe

I have a dual xeon 3ghz, which runs 6 l4d's forked. if its really busy, it could hold up to 3/4 vs games with 8 players, and the others filled with 4.. at that point i see it sometimes hit 0% idle, maybe you could do more and i have a bad setup.. but anything more then that will show ingame.. So s
