Hardware is a major factor in determining how stable your server is, whether it gets laggy and what kind of ping you get while playing. XP Servers are custom-built from high quality hardware components configured specifically for gaming. All of our servers are packed with dual and Quad CPU's, 15000rpm Maxtor Atlas SCSI hard drives, a minimum of 4 gigs of RAM, and at least half a dozen cooling fans to ensure that the machines can easily handle processing of game data. As new games come out, we upgrade our hardware to keep up with their increasingly CPU-intensive nature. Below we are giving you an unprecedented look inside our machines part by part so you can see with your own eyes what kind of hardware your gaming server will reside on.
