That type of set really does need some power, every page will be dynamic and images and so fourth will loading fro a database.

I would get a dual xeon or at least HT p4 around 3.0 you need two gigs of ram as well since the MySQL will be through the roof.

If you want do it right your going to be around $299 - $349 managed with cpanel. Eventually you will want to do a remote MYSQL box for about another $200 a month.

Also I wouldn't cheap on the connection, since a p2p type environment is tested all over every minute. It needs a good connection or bad reps will roll out fast.

Good luck with your project.

Our $299 server here will do it:

I can get it down to $249 since you won't use the full bandwidth most likely.

If you want to go with the dual xeon then contact us here:

We have a couple available for $299 with your bandwidth needs.
