    I need a cheap windows VPS.

    Hello Forum,

    I need a Windows VPS with about 1GB of RAM, About 20/30GB Of diskspace but for a pretty cheap price. It needs to be able to Run Steam (Thats my only requirement to be honest.) and I would prefer for it to be in the EU close to the UK.

    Regards,
    Dorkslayz.

    One of the cheapest places for Windows VPS' in the UK right now is WebFusion. They do a VPS plan with 1GB RAM, 50GB disk space and "unmetered" traffic. The best news? It's only £19.99!

    What would you consider "cheap," and would you be wanting Server 2003 or 2008?

    Note that Windows being a requirement increases the price a bit.

    BurstNET seems to have a configuration that'd work for you for $12.95, perhaps check their Windows VPS line out.

    weboutloud-Chris,

    BurstNET's Windows VPS server range isn't currently available in the UK - or so their eu website says!

    Ah yes, BurstNET's only got OpenVZ nodes in their EU datacenter currently it seems.. I'm sure that'll be changing in the future, though.

    Do you have a rough budget to work with?

    also: I assume you've already checked out the Web Hosting Offers section of the forum?

    Yes I have checked them out, We have a rough budget of $12 (Found 1 Provider which offers it for $12 and another for $8 but im not sure of the legitimacy of the two)

    Eek, $12 will probably be tough, especially in Europe (considering Windows licenses aren't free and add to the monthly price)

    You can actually get your RAM usage down to 200MB and slightly below if you disable Windows services you know you won't need.
