Jaggl Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Letz talk about the Price of the Hardware! Where u buy it? What is the cost of the Hardware? Me Company search for a cheap Hardware Reseller but in Germany/Austria that is not that cheap! At the Moment we have only Singel CPU Server's but we trying to get some Dual CPU Servers, so can someone Post good and cheap Resellers for Hardware thar are shipping to Germany?! Tell me, what u pay for a "good Gamingserver Hardware"?! I think the Hardware is cheaper in the USA like here in Europa or? The good old free USA, like they say every time here in Euroopa in TV Regards Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvailNetworks Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 If there is a significant difference in hardware it may be beneficial to have a U.S. Contact assemble/purchase the products for you and then ship it over. Here is the list of what I buy for servers Dual Xeon 3.0 800MHZ 2X80gb Seagate 7200.8's 2Gb ECC Registered Ram Tyan Transport GX21 Barebones Unit $1250 Build Cost Suppliers: Starmicro.net for the Ram Hdd's - Newegg.com Transport barebones - mobo_outlet on ebay Xeons - Normally from Ebay as well there are great deals on sealed retails. I normall get 2 x 3.0's for $350ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 your talking over $1500 when customs and VAT charges are applied soon as it hits the UK. -P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvailNetworks Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 well of course, it still does cost me the same to build it however. Even with VAT it still may be cheaper from here depending on how bad hardware prices are over there. I don't buy computer stuff from europe, just clothing which seems to work out quite well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I checked EBay the other night. For a single CPU server with a gig of RAM and Windows 2k3 server it would cost about $700-800. Not too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvailNetworks Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 was that a 1u system or tower? Also side note does anyone here know where to get good discounted 2k3 server licenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 It was an HP 1 U system. Also the Win2k3 license I mentioned I saw on Ebay as well. There are a couple places doing numerous bids on the standard verision. Starting bigs werw like $250 I think, and outright buy was like $450.

AvailNetworks Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 damn the licenses are still a bit rough I would rather pay the $30/mo as I do now until something else comes availabe *cough* linux that price for an hp 1u is pretty excellent though, I have always liked their server systems, excellent build quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floris Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 You can get very cheap Windows 2003 licences if you know someone within Microsoft. They have an empower program, or something like that, and I got my 2003 Enterprise Edition for like 50$. Or order something like Visual Studio 2003-2005, full servers included.
