My factions server has a 15-20 playerbase, and right now we used shared hosting 8gb. It's pretty laggy sometimes, and with donations coming in, I've been looking for proper hosting to switch to.

I'm looking at OVH, is that a good idea for a server like mine?
Also would a VPS be smart (https://www.ovh.com/us/vps/vps-ssd.xml) or a dedicated game server (https://www.ovh.com/us/dedicated-servers/game/).

I assume the game server has more power, but its way, way more expensive.

If I did get the VPS, would that have more power than my current server? I'm paying $10 a month from XHostFire for 8gb. Instead, I could get VPS SSD 3 for $14 a month.

Thanks in advance for the help

Honestly, I don't think you need a dedicated host but what were you guys using before? 8gb should be enough to handle at least 100 players...[DOUBLEPOST=1498516643][/DOUBLEPOST]Wait, don't quote me on the 100, it should DEFINITELY be able to handle 15-20 though.[DOUBLEPOST=1498516856][/DOUBLEPOST]Actually, it depends on what plugins you have. I'm all over the place right now my bad.

It's the host, especially considering I got it for $10 a month, recurring.
It doesn't lag too hard, but cannons especially kill the server.

I am using a lot of plugins. 83.[DOUBLEPOST=1498517198][/DOUBLEPOST]https://gyazo.com/30f0478229433a07c3fdab6035d4c2e0

Okay I think you cpu Is a bit underPowered a server like that usally uses smth like an i7 920
I am not sure but I think epic world generator may be a throttle for such a weak cpu
And if that isnot a throttle for the CPU you have a lot of plugins it is a weak CPU I don't think It can handle smth like that
Easily.And I guess there servers would be the same

Recommended host(Good prices and good CPU and great Support): germanode.com
