lletin Dedicated Hosting Specifications Questions..

Hi All,

I will be moving my vBulletin forums to a new dedicated server soon. I have been looking around for a suitable server specs, and I would like to ask you the following questions:

1- If I have the option to maximize one of the following only: the Processor, The Memory, or The Hard Disk. Which one should I go for?

2- Are there any certain settings that I can change in my server environment to get maximum performance for my forums?

3- Do you recommend a certain provider for dedicated servers? Which? And Why?

The goal is to maximize the performance of my 500 Online users vBulletin forums.

Waiting for your answers.

Thanks All.

It really does depend on how many clients you have on your site and what they are doing. In order of priority and on a very general basis: RAM, CPU, Hard Disk.

Based upon 500 users online, caching and clustering should yield high benefits. In addition, a php accelerator will lower your load. We have a client with 500-1000 users online at any time and they use Memcache, eAccelerator, clustering and SCSI RAID and their site is quite snappy no matter how many users are on.
