Default Going Dedicated, any suggestions

Price is still a consideration, beyond that want as much as possible for as little as possible - but up time, service, etc is still the most important.

Would like to stay under 300, actually need to.

Perhaps rackshack.net? I've got a dedicated box there and I'm satisfied considering how cheap it is. Don't expect too much support though, but as I said, you get what you pay for.

<-- Agrees with Erwin. Racknine is an excellent company and all things considered, they are one of the best hosts I've found.

nocster.com beats all companies hands down here. Below 300, pfft, go look at the valentines day special servers, for $300 per month you can get your hands on Dual 2GHZ Xeons with 1GB of top quality RAM and 1TB bandwidth...

I checked the dedicated servers page of nocster, and the prices are quite a bit more expensive than rackshack. However, support might be better, I don't know. All servers at nocster comes with a max ram of 512 MB (which isn't enough for a webserver if you ask me), and paying $85 extra setup + $25 monthtly for 1 GB RAM is a complete rip-off.

I'm thinking of replacing my main server (Dedicated 1 Ghz AMD Duron, 512 RAM (Rackshack)), so I would go with Rackshack again. This deal is very tempting...

Intel Pentium 4 2.0 GHz
1 GB RAM
80 GB Hard Drive (7200RPM)
400GB Monthly Transfer
Plesk PSA 5.0

Setup: $109
Monthly: $139

The equivalent server at nocster.com would be something like this:

Intel Pentium 4? 2Ghz
1 GB RAM
80GB IDE Hard Drive
300GB Bandwidth
5 IP Addresses
CPanel5

Setup: $485
Montly: $170

How you can say that nocster.com beats all companies hands down is beyond me...

http://www.nocster.com/presale.shtml

Intel P4 Xeon?
Dual 2Ghz
1GB ECC REG DDR
120GB IDE Hard Drive
1000GB Bandwidth << !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5 IP Addresses
Red Hat? Linux 7.3
$0.00 SETUP
$299.95 MONTHLY

+ Cpanel only costs $20 a month extra.

This is one top quality server, and the main thing, 1TB of bandwidth...

And the main thing with the prices at nocster is:

they are all managed servers

Their support team will go a long way for you and do a lot for you .

Ah yes, I was just looking at their non-sale servers. There are some pretty nice servers for a good price, I must say. I'll keep nocster in mind.

EDIT: I don't like this though:

3-Month Advance Payment *

EDIT 2: Rackshack has something similar:

Intel Dual XEON 2.0GHz
1 GB DDR RAM - 2x120GB Hard Drives
1000 GB Monthly Transfer!
Ensim WEBppliance 3.1
$299.00 SET-UP FEE
$299 MONTHLY
