I don't know very much about hosting servers, but from watching Christmas movies, I do know that a good prince is tough to find.  O:-)

I'd be willing to kick in maybe a couple hundred euros to help get things off the ground if needed. How many others need to do the same?

I can have good discounts with DELL.
I orderered from them for like 500000€ of computers and servers 2 years ago and we keep ordering replacement comps on regular basis.
Just send me the server spec and i will ask them.

For ut servers, look for the highest frequency/ipc cpus you can find, iirc it only runs on single core.

You could try locking each server to its own core or 2 cores, to avoid thread jumping by windows scheduler.

I dont think you even need more than 8 cores total for 4-5 servers.

Better disable turbo, look for the highest base frequency cpu.

Hyperthreading should be off, i think.

Use 32bit server only, 64bit has some issues i think.

Not sure if it runs best on 64bit or 32bit windows

You might need windows server 2003 maybe older for minimum issues.

Linux version has some tickrate issues, people used to avoid it.
