Why rent? Problem with renting is that major problem with money management to keep it up. That person who rent a server must also setup a shop in their website or others in order to make even more money to keep it running plus it need a good business so the server can stay up. That mean that person need more players and half+ players need to spend money to him in order to keep it running. Something that person want something that could have bigger rams or bigger cpu running to reduces the lag and stress the server might have. Finish checking all DayZ Standalone server hosting, almost little of them let you all rent it cheap BUT at the same time, they also have bad review. Few good DayZ Standalone server hosting have good review but the price is HUGE. I have 2 computer (One of them I bought build for server hosting only) and they both are build and setup for server hosting only. I am running in 50GB fiber-line internet serveries to my computer meaning that there will be no lag. One of my computer is current running a Minecraft server with no down/lag time. My other computer is current upgrading so it can handle more players and rams increasing so now it is current at 16-cores at 3T GB HDD/SSD (Current mount of two) running 5 cooling fans. This super computer is ready for server hosting and I want to test it on DayZ since I know DayZ will cause stress on server.
