What Customers Say on Trustpilot
GTX Gaming absolutely excels at customer service
GTX Gaming excels at customer service. Every ticket is answered within minutes and issues resolved promptly and professionally. Nothing but wonderful things to say about the service GTX provides. I've had the pleasure of interacting with several of their support agents: Tom H, Rui P, Jamie R, John K, Robert P, James K — and man, they're all excellent! Kudos to the entire team and thank you for the service you provide to the gaming community. They've enabled our entire crew to spend many hours having a total blast.
Really good price/performance, no downsides
So far, probably the best server hosting website I've used. Game panel feels best so far, support acts quickly (shout out to Jamie, my man saved the session). Barotrauma sessions have been smoother than ever before, and approx 20% cheaper. For €9.60 I can run a decently big modpack, no issues whatsoever so far. Good server location, good hardware. I don't think I have anything to complain about so far.
Jamie Redpath is the pro we all want
Jamie Redpath was extremely patient and professional. He helped guide us through a server issue that was causing some stress. As it turned out, part of the problem was on our end and part on the server side. Jamie calmly helped us find and correct the issues and kindly assisted us with a memory issue that we didn't even know we had! Would that all CS pros were as knowledgeable and patient as he.

GTX Gaming Minecraft server hosting starts at just A$3.72/mo for a 1GB Dirt plan, ideal for 2–5 players testing vanilla worlds. Our most popular Iron plan (4GB, ~10–15 players with light plugins) is A$15.25/mo, and modded servers from 6GB start at A$22.88/mo. There are no setup fees, no contracts, and you can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel any time.
RAM requirements depend on player count and gameplay style. As a rule of thumb: 1–2GB for 2–5 vanilla players; 3–4GB for 5–15 players with light plugins; 6–8GB for small modpacks or 15–25 players; 12–16GB for large modpacks like RLCraft, All The Mods, or Better MC; and 20GB+ for heavy modded servers with 30+ players. See the RAM guide table above for detailed recommendations.
Absolutely. GTX Gaming supports all major modding platforms including Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt, plus hybrid platforms like Mohist and Arclight (Forge mods + Bukkit plugins). One-click installers cover thousands of modpacks from CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB, Technic, and ATLauncher. For the smoothest modded Minecraft server hosting experience we recommend at least 6GB RAM for small modpacks and 12GB+ for heavy ones like RLCraft or All The Mods.
Java Edition is the original Minecraft for PC and supports the full ecosystem of mods, plugins, custom server software (Paper, Spigot, Forge, Fabric) and modpacks. Bedrock Edition runs on Windows 10/11, mobile, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, and uses a different server protocol. GTX Gaming offers dedicated Minecraft Java server hosting and Minecraft Bedrock server hosting on the same hardware — switch between editions in your control panel any time.
Yes! GTX Gaming Minecraft server hosting supports every Minecraft version, including the latest 1.21+ Tricky Trials release. You can switch versions with one click in the control panel — useful for matching modpacks to specific versions or rolling back. We typically have new releases supported within 24 hours of Mojang's launch.
You can technically host a Minecraft server on your own PC, but it has serious downsides: your server only stays online while your PC is on, you'll need to configure port forwarding (a security risk), residential internet typically lacks DDoS protection, and your gameplay performance suffers because the server competes with your game for CPU and RAM. Renting a dedicated Minecraft server from GTX Gaming gives you 24/7 uptime, enterprise DDoS protection, dedicated 5.7GHz CPU resources, and instant scaling — all for less than the cost of a coffee per week.
