i want a dedicated server for hosting bf2 games.

Ideally i need to host 4 games on it at once, all bf2, one of which would be DCON,

So i need a good spec, with a lot of ram!

id like 64 players per game however 32 per game would suffice for two of the games!

and ofcourse a quick line!

wtb ?

UK Based?
Do you wnt the games to be already setup and ready to run? Or do you want to do the installs yourself [would take approx. 10 mins on 100mbps].

Ideally you would be better running 2 dedicated servers. As one highspec dedicated server will not run 4 x 64 player servers. www.killercreation.co.uk do very cheap and good support dedictaed servers. I would suggest a quad core and just testing it and see how it runs with the ammount of servers you need. http://www.killercreation.co.uk/services/dedicated-servers/intel-core2quad-pro otherwise you might be better of buying seperate game servers.

http://www.tailoredservers.com - good, but no managed support, but for the price, it's worth it.

www.eukhost.com - UK based though.

Thing is, you will get about 100 - 120 ms pings to the server, it's playable, but you might notice lag.
