Virtual Server or Dedicated Server
Which one is right for you?

It really depends what you’re planning to run on your server: Sometimes it’s better to choose a dedicated server instead of a virtual server. For example, if you value guaranteed resources that are always available to you. We have compiled the main differences in performance for you here. Have a look — it’s worth comparing.

Dedicated servers – our little decision-making guide

Full performance just for you

We provide you with a complete machine – including full usability over your hardware.
It is based in our data centre for your security, but you have exclusive use of it and never need to share it or any of the available resources (in the form of RAM, CPU, web space and much more) with other users. Go ahead: with root access, full administrator privileges and your own static IP address, you can use your dedicated server to do exactly what you want according to your individual requirements. In short, lease a server from SERVER4YOU and enjoy full freedom for your projects.

How much power does your project need?

A dedicated server is just the thing for you if a lot of resources are required on a permanent basis, such as for complex, dynamic sites, online shops, VPNs or it as a game or database server. Are static web projects not your thing? Have you put your heart and soul into creating an extensive website full of sophisticated visual effects? Or do you expect a lot of simultaneous access? Should your server be able to easily handle a high volume of database queries and CPU-heavy processes? Then lease a dedicated server and pay particular attention to the processing power, the number of processor cores and memory equipment, because these factors will determine the speed of your system.

Which one? – the SATA/SSD storage question

Good question!

We will gladly answer any questions you may have: From Monday to Saturday between 08:00AM and 8:00PM personally by telephone — and round-the-clock by email.

Dedicated server with windows

This is required to fix the «Unpure client detected» bug.

NOTE: DON’T uncomment net_ip and don’t set it. It is bugged and causes unexpected results, one of them being the server not appearing in Steam’s serverlist and not accepting connections, even direct connections.

This bug happens when the server stays alive for too much time. The server will use 100% of one core even when being inactive, thus overloading one of your VPS’s cores.

An easy way to prevent that, is automatically restarting the server every 24 hours. Easy batch script to close the server every 24 hours:

The server might stop working / crash for some reason. That just happens, like it could happen with many other game servers.

The problem is that when the server crashes, a window saying «Quake Live has stopped working» pops up in your server. This message waits for user input to click on «Close the program».

When this message appears, your autorestart script will stop working and won’t detect the crash until the user clicks on «Close the program».

So we need to disable this message. In order to do so:

• In any Windows Server machine, open Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc).
• Click on Computer Configuration.
• Click on Administrative templates.
• Click on Windows Components.
• Click on Windows Error Reporting.
• On the right column, double click on Prevent display of the user interface for critical errors.
• In the new window that appeared, select Enabled and click OK.
• Close the Local Group Policy Editor.

No need to reboot, the changes should immediately take effect and the server shouldn’t display the error message anymore. Whenever the server crashes, it will instantly close and your autorestart script will start the server again.
