Ok my clan wants to get get a dedicated server for the following.
Tactical Ops (like CS1.5) 16 players
Desert Combat 24-32 players
Teamspeak 20 people

I don't know how much each server takes in CPU or bandwith, thats what i was hoping you could help me with. I do know TacOps is anything for CPU load. We dont have ALOT of money to spend, we were looking at some servers at servermatrix but we were unsure. Please help, what the specs and how much bandwith we would be using.

If you want the servers lag-free, even when they fill up, then you'll need a dual processor server. What is your budget?

You will have more than enough bandwidth if you go with ServerMatrix. I don't see you using more than 500 GB per month, but that depends on how often your servers fill up.

Most the clan is working 8am-3pm, normal workday. Umm, I doubt that the DC server and the TO server were both full at the same time. I was looking at the SuperGamerz at servermatrix. Our budget is around $150 at most.

on peak hours you need a lot of processing power, im suggesting a p4 maybe 2.4+ loaded with ram.

yeah, I don't see you guys needing a dual box to run just two gameservers
