Hello,

Your question cannot really be answered based upon the information you have provided.

Yes, DDR3 is newer technology and will run at higher speeds and will mostly come with new cpu's. However, do you really need all this power your listing above.

How much bandwidth are you doing? How much traffic are you generating? Is your current hardware causing your sites to run slow?

The reasons I bring this up is because a lot of people who shop around for hosting companys just assume they need super powerful servers and pay the extra money for them when there is no need for you to pay more money in most cases.

A lot of times when it comes to hardware any middle range processor and 2-4 gigs of ram will be more then enough to do whatever it is you need to do. What it really comes down to with hardware is hard drives, raid types so forth.

In even more detail, your hardware could be more then enough but because of a poorly written script or hard drives not running the way they are supposed to be can cause high cpu loads, and extremely slow websites.


Anyways I could go on forever but if you would like to contact me and tell me what exactly your looking to do I can easily inform you what you really need vs what you might just be willing to pay extra for. I am not trying to get you to come host with us but if you decide to I am not going to turn you away either LOL.

My info is in my sig.
