KVM server that has Win11 Pro.

[Jackal65]

I am looking for a cheap rent a server solution that will allow me to KVM into the system and use it as normal Win11 Pro PC. I need an always on solution that I can remote into and get some files stored on it and use it as a daily computer essentially.

I have never done anything like this so your input would be invaluable.

I am looking for 50Gb to 100Gb of local storage 16Gb of memory and unlimited up and down internet connection.

I will probably run Office from Email account but would like to install pieces of software and web browser.

Any idea how much it will cost a month/year. I want to load work on it and let it render while load shedding as one example. I will probably map a Google drive to it to store pre and post processed files. I am not looking for anything expensive. So if you know of any services that provide this type of thing please let me know.

I'm not aware of any local provider offering Windows Desktop OSs on VMs. Microsoft however offer a Windows 11 "VM" https://www.microsoft.com/en-za/windows-365/business/compare-plans-pricing

Depending on your rendering needs, you might want to consider a GPU-accelerated service.

Willing to use Linux as well and I am looking at something like this.

Linux cloud servers



Good amount of storage and not a bad price. Might be just what I need. I checked the software I run can run on Linux and honestly it can take a week to render the stuff I need to render. It takes a week doing it from home because it doesn't use GPU. Difference is this thing is always on always have power and can remain on indefinitely. Also it is South African base so local support is nice.

Not saying I am going to use it, I am saying it looks good for the price.
