Hey everyone.

This is the first time i have been looking for a windows VPS.

I would like it to run my game server.

Specs:

10gig space
500+ Bandwidth
1gig+ ram

Basically, i was looking if someone could give me a 2 day trial free of charge. I am not one for fraud. If this will be a problem, I will be happy to pay a small fee.

Please post offers.

I need it ASAP

Regards,
ikick

http://www.3dgwebhosting.com/ have cool windows VPS, except they use some plesk panel so plesk is like a virus on the windows OS.
I shut off most of its services so it wouldnt use all my ram/cpu
But they are fast and you can get a
1.2GB ram 2000GB bandwidth 5 IP VPS with them for 45$(With 50% off they currently have.)

Thanks CyR.

Have you used them before?
If so, do they have administrator RDP?

Sorry for the stupid questions, but the site wont load for me.

Without Administrator RDP your vps would be useless so its kind of a given XD

Yes you have Administrator RDP.
I have a ticket open with them at the moment seeing if its possible to remove plesk. Im pretty sure judging by the system they use it isnt but meh.

They can remove Plesk but you will require an OS reload... Several months ago when I first signed up with them I requested one without Plesk and they had to make a new custom Windows OS Template to do it :P

gameservers require decent ping and it's all about location location location.

i suggest you start with location first.

3dg is in canada and from your location you're in australia thats pretty far

I see.

What about an american server?

Because i happen to have mine hosted on a server in america and its really the same speed, no lag.

200-300ms ping to 3g, (from aust)
Going to the US is the same.
BTW: I just removed plesk myself.
Server still works lol.

How'd you do it?

I am currently ordering one with them now.

but getting no where because of my internet speed :(

How long does it normally take for them to set it up?

If all goes well. It will start setting up instantly and be up in a few min.

There system can be kinda glitched at setting them up tho

Thanks for that confirmation.

I have decided not to go with them as their paypal option doesn't work for me.

Any other suggestions?

What about 888.net

are they good?

Yes the billing is kinda buggy, dont really like it much, I set mine up via emails to them. They setup the paypal thing that way... Took about 24 hours to have my VPS from first contact with them.
I have no idea on others so I will let you get back to searching!
