    8.1 hits a second .. most anything on the market should be fine for this >900mhz with atleast 512mb of ram.

    then again I am only assuming, ive never had a box with that high of a banner load.

    Even a 450Mhz RAQ could easily handle this.

    We have 1Ghz servers pushing out 30-40Mbps of static content, equalling +/- 10,000GB per month. Your banners would only take around 300GB, so no problem at all.

    but raq's are so worthless

    which leads me to believe my statement about how most anything on the market should be fine for this ..

    Just go to Rackshack and get the most powerful server you can find. The one on that page with the 10MBps unmetered connection, should do nicely.

    If 1 sever can't handle the load, then you'll need to pay some Linix magician to setup some load balancing between 2 or more machines. You could post a request into the ad forum [at the bottom of this forum's main page] and specifically request what you need for your requirements etc. It all depends on how much $$$$$ you're willing to part with each month too.

    If the banner is less than 20k, do you really need this much RAM? To cache the file in RAM would use a negligable amount. How much RAM for processes?

    I went to that site but any server with grunt was sold out.
    unless this could do the job.....
    Intel Celeron 1.3 GHz
    1 GB RAM
    256k OBC - 100MHz FSB
    I only like to get my servers on a month by month basis I think rackshack require a longer contract
    maybe this server would do the job...
