    They are around the cheapest and have great quality of service and pings throughout Europe (though they are British based).

    www.servermatrix.com.

    I bought my server from them, Its a little bit more money ($150 a month) but your getting a whole box, not just a game server. Meaning you can run as many players as you want.

    We are bringing a brand new box online in the next 2 to 3 weeks that will hold 4 NS 18 Player servers.

    We will be running a special on them as they will be our first round of NS Servers.

    18 Player with Psychostats once a day and free clan web site hosting for 80.00 month.

    Contact either Mars or Draco at <a href='http://www.predatorial-tendencies.com' target='_blank'>http://www.predatorial-tendencies.com</a> or in IRC #predatorial-tendencies on Gamesnet.

    24 Player WC3-CS
    20 Player The Specialists
    20 Player Team Fortress
    20 Player Natural Selection 2.0
    20 Player CS

    Last night with 4 of the 5 servers full the procs were sitting at 42% Util. and going as low as 28%

    This is on a Dual HT 2.4 Ghz Xeon with 1 gig of ram.

    So far LB just rented from BeachServers. I have to say, they are doing amazing. The servers are located in Texas, which means about 70 or less for anyone in the US.

    Also, I believe they are about 119.99 a Month. And its an entire box.

    Last time we we checked the CPU Usage, it was 0-2% on Lost with 14 people.

    Dual 2.4 HT Xeons running Gentoo is a wonderful thing to behold.. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
