That depends on the dedicated machine. On average each game server will use 7GB of RAM (memory). If you want to host 10, we recommend you have at least 70 GB of memory available on the machine. Make sure to reserve at least 4 GB or RAM for the machine itself. So for this example you would need at least 74 GB of RAM.
You can currently use Ubuntu 16.04 or Windows Server 2019 (Standard).
We set up guides for every step in the process.
Connect your Windows server using the Windows guides.
We currently support installing:

You can up and downgrade at any time. Please not that downgrading will require you to remove game servers from the machine.
