CSGO dedicated server, i want your help for my community
 

Good morning all,

I hesitate to rent a dedicated server or VPS for my community on CSGO.

According to the two links below, which one is better?

I would like at least 8 csgo servers, in addition to my website and all the administration (mysql, phpmyadmin, ....)

Could you help me please ?

https://www.ovhcloud.com/fr/bare-met...me-1/#use_case
With this one I only have 6 cores (so 6 servers?)

https://www.ikoula.com/fr/serveur-dedie-amd-ryzen
And with this one, I have 12 cores, so I could at least put 8 servers?

Thank you very much !

Remember; ikoula don't offer DDoS protection. =)

Go with OVH. =)

Ok, nice, thank you.

I can run 6 servers with this ? or more ?

and I can protect my servers myself, right? with linux. the ddos protection really important in 2020?

I would go with the ikoula offer for sure.
That Ryzen 3900x should be good for 12x 64 @ 64 ticks with mods.

Seeing as it's in someone's datacenter, I'm guessing it will run a local database for settings etc?
I would recommend it if your databases and webservice etc etc is on another server elsewhere, but I really can't recommend an all-in-one solution. 🙈

Check out the hetzner auctions for a cheaper alternative maybe, and pick up a secondary cheaper box that's all storage, then you'll have both their DDoS protection and better ways of metagating attacks and downtimes by spreading things out.
