Where in the world are you finding that much RAM in a racked server for $200/month?

I think he means electrical bill at his estimated wattage load of the server and his known kWh cost, not rented server/hosting cost.

Aha, right. That makes a lot more sense.

At my house. I have 5Gbps fiber and could pay for 10 or 25 if I need it.

[sebmellen]

Gotcha. But to be clear, you’re talking only about energy usage, correct?

[cobbzilla]

Yes, what other opex is there? It will have good ventilation, I’m not worried about cooling.

I thought you were talking about renting a dedicated server from a hosting provider, not racking it yourself. My bad!
