Looking for a good VPS

[Charly]

Hey guys. I'm looking for a good VPS host with reasonable prices suitable for running a game server. I will need 2-3GB of RAM.

Hey Charly,

Does this have to be a local VPS, or is international okay?

There are lots of options, though 2+GB of RAM does start to get expensive.

Hi, we need it to be local. Thanks

May I ask why?

May I ask why?

So that they have good latency to the server that they are hosting games on

May I ask why?

Sure. Me and a couple of guys from the NAG community want to put together a local minecraft server.

Unless you can afford it hosting locally is expensive.

Take a look here.

Hi, I checked that first link and both JHB and CPT are out of stock. Even if they were in stock we will need to also host a voice comms server and some of the plugins would need to integrate into a web site. Our budget isn't too tight but we would really really prefer not to spend too much but if it's expensive then that's what we'll have to do.
