    UK Dedicated Server Required

    Hi,

    Looking for a dedicated server in the UK with similar specs:

    Intel Core2Duo
    2x 2.33+ GHz
    3 Mb L2 - FSB 1066 MHz
    Architecture 64 bits
    RAM 4 GB DDR2

    That server is £35.00 on OVH but it's located in france. Was wandering if i could find one for the same spec / price in the UK?

    Thanks

    DediShack, PoundHost, UK2 or RackSRV.

    Get my +1 (Experience will all of them).

    Good luck with the search.

    None of them can match OVH or Hetzner prices

    Have you actually contacted them, or just used site-list prices?

    Most UK providers will not want to compete with that price...power is just way too expensive, and not really worth selling the really cheap servers in that market.

    We wouldn't be able to get anywhere near that price as its just not profitable for us, thanks for the recommendation though Jason

    Conact PoundHost and see what deal they can do for you.

    I am sorry, but it would currently be uneconomical to offer that solution at that price in UK.

    I would be interested to see the URLs to where Hetzner and OVH offer it.

    OVH are one of the cheapest dedicated server providers, I doubt you will find that server for the same price in the uk.

    Why are you only looking for UK location?

    OVH/Kimsufi charge £25 for a Dedicated Server cPanel license. So it looks like the addons are quite expensive compared to other providers.

    There is also a setup fee of £49.99. £49.99 / 12 months = an extra £4.17 every month for the first year.

    Looks like they offer high spec servers diskspace/bandwidth/power-wise though. Do they use quality hardware?

    Yes they use quality hardware, but the support is slow and speeds to US/ASIA are not good.

    Can't really talk for the others - but avoid UK2 at every cost.
