Hi everyone,

I'm curious as if this is possible? I've been doing some research online but could not find a reliable one that does this. I have some crazy ideas in mind and would like to give it a shot and see if it works and able to make money out of it.
 
will memu really work on a vps without gpu?
 
Paperspace Core + GPU aught to do it, but it's not exactly cheap. Decent for testing but chances are if you want to scale you're better off with a COLO of a custom GPU rig and VMware ESXi (or another virtualization software that supports GPU pass-through, like I believe Proxmox and XCP-NG? [Not 100% sure on XCP-NG]).

COLO as a small guy you can use something like Joes Datacenter because places like Switch, PhoenixNAP, etc. are going to want you to need 1/4 rack before they even talk to you. Joes will even take a regular desktop system and host it in their datacenter so that's likely the simplest way to start as any GPU VPS or Dedicated is going to be high priced.

Paperspace is $0.45/hour for starting GPU, or $337.50/month, so slap yourself together a desktop with an RX5700 XT or something like that. It'll pay for itself after a couple months as you might be in for $500-600 but hosting goes down to $50/month with 1gbps line (33TB/month), and if the project doesn't work you can always sell the system later on to recoup most your investment.
 
Low end dedicated server cost ~ as VPS. I think you can start from there and test if that all is going to work. That would be the best idea to make sure.
Just avoid long term contracts on the dedicated servers .

That is also my plan. I was just gauging the forum to see if this is possible. I've been doing some research and found out that dedicated servers with AMD as their chip could work but they don't come cheap. Paperspace core + GPU isn't cheap either as they charge an hourly rate and I need multiple instances running at the same time. I think I would just opt in with an old system unit with 16-32GB ram and a 1650Ti to save up. 1650 still works decently and since it is just an emulator.
 
If you want to try this on a amd based vps I can give you one for free for a few days for testing to see if it will work. PM me
 
I think it is based on what VPS do you rent. Most of them disable VT, because it it Virtual Machine. But you can use nested Virtualization. And only few of them enable it. Its really dont need GPU to run emulator.
 
You can find VPS Android Emulator here: daintycloud.com/vps-android-emulator
 
I believe best solution is to buy lots of cheap used mobile phones.
 
Alexhost have VPS with Android, I never tried to use. But might work for your case or scenario, give a try.

As I know, rockhoster.com and also libertyvps.net offer affordable VPS hosting accounts. You can compare them and choose the best for your needs.
 
On Kamatera vps work bluestack and smartgaga

any VPS with virtualization, if you are total noob just grab a windows server with hyper-v, thats it.
