So I'm sure a lot of us here have Delimiter's Dual X5150 service, but I'm just wondering if somebody who is experienced with server performance can tell me if it is worth it for the following circumstances:
The deal is to upgrade from Dual Intel Xeon X5150s to Dual Intel Xeon L5420s, for a 1 off payment of $100. My renewal fee will still be $200/year next year.
-I only run game servers (Steam games) -Currently paying $200/year for the Dual X5150s plan (which is $16.66/mo, and I have 9 months left. Adding $100 would average to $27.75/month for the next 9 months) -Trying to have a server that will last me at least until summer 2016
I think the upgrade will be worth but, it here are my concerns: -Will these types of servers be significantly cheaper next year (as newer and more powerful servers come out at current prices)? -Is the Dual X5150s already powerful enough for a few game servers? -Is the performance boost to Dual L5420s really worth $100?
Thanks so much!
