How many players could this host? [Ball Park Estimates]

[Strideynet]

Sorry, I know these sort of things can be hard to ballpark. However, if you have experience with these kind of stats a contribution would be nice. We are looking to host about 32 players on DarkRP, with room for expansion in the future.

Core™ i5-750 (2.67 GHZ over 4 cores)
16GB RAM
100mbps symmetrical connection

Thanks for reading (Probably yet another of these posts)

That CPU is pretty dated. I would recommend upgrading but if you really want to stick with that CPU the only way to know for sure would be to test it out and see where your hard cap is.

I'd imagine no more then 24-32 players per core though.

Cores don't mean anything since srcds is not threaded.

Yes I'm aware 24-32 players per core (per srcds instance).

Kimsufi? I got a hold of the older KS-3 with the i3 which is so much better per core.. With an i3 2130 (at 3.4 GHZ) and 8gb of ram, I managed a full 90 slot darkrp server with basic non-cpu intensive addons (no addons like TDM cars.)

If you do heavy optimization and have good internet with a slightly lowered tickrate I'd say no more than 30.

FYI TDM Cars have equal server load to a normal HL2 jeep.

Ah, thanks. I never really knew myself, I guess my server just sucks at using all cars.

No more than 30 with limited addons! No explosives!
