ATX Colocation
What Is ATX Server Colocation and Who Is It For?
The most economical way to run your tower-case server on data center infrastructure without moving to a rack chassis.
Move your tower case into the data center
ATX server colocation is the co-location service in which we host your server built in a tower or desktop-style case with a standard ATX motherboard in our data center. Your server is placed in its own space on the shelf; power, cooling, internet connectivity, IP addresses and DDoS protection come from us, while hardware and software control stay with you.
Why ATX colocation?
High-frequency desktop processors (AMD Ryzen, Intel Core) are often ahead of server processors in single-core performance and cost less. You can host systems built for workloads sensitive to single-core speed, such as game servers, build and CI jobs and databases, without converting them to a rack chassis. It is also the most practical way to move a server running in an office or at home to uninterrupted power, redundant cooling and professional connectivity.
Who uses it?
Communities and companies running game servers, software teams working on their own hardware, companies that want to keep their data in Turkey and on their own hardware, and small hosting start-ups. If you have a rack server, you can get the same services with the rack colocation plan.

Guide
Server Colocation Guide
What you need to know before buying a server colocation service.
What is co-location (colocation)?
Co-location is the hosting of a physical server that you own in a data center. You provide the hardware; the data center provides space, power, cooling, internet connectivity and physical security. It is also known as server housing.
How is the cost of server colocation calculated?
The fee is made up of case type (ATX or number of rack units), power, traffic and port speed. Example: ATX colocation (4.500 ₺) + 300 W power (+850 ₺) + 100 Mbps traffic (+1.875 ₺) = 7.225 ₺ per month + VAT. Traffic is measured with the 95th-percentile method. You can see your own configuration in the price calculator.
Server colocation or a dedicated server?
If you own the hardware or want to choose it yourself, colocation is more economical in the long run. If you don't want to invest in hardware, our dedicated server rental service is a better fit.
Server colocation or a VDS?
If you don't need all the resources of a whole server or want to get started quickly, VDS server hosting is more flexible. Co-location is preferred for steady, heavy workloads, special hardware requirements and cases where the data must stay on your own hardware.
Choosing the right power and traffic plan
For power, go by your server's consumption under load; 200–300 W is usually enough for a typical ATX server with a desktop processor, while systems with a graphics card or many disks need more. For traffic, you can start with 50 Mbps and upgrade as your needs grow; because metering uses the 95th percentile, short peaks are not counted.
What should you look for when choosing a data center?
Power and cooling redundancy, carrier diversity, DDoS protection, remote access (KVM) and 24/7 physical intervention are the most important criteria. Our data center in Istanbul lets you reach your users in Turkey with low latency.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About ATX Server Colocation
If you couldn't find the answer to your question, message us on WhatsApp.
ATX server colocation is the co-location service in which you place your server built in a standard ATX (tower / desktop-style) case rather than a rack chassis in a data center and receive power, internet connectivity and IP addresses. The server is your property; we provide space, power, cooling, network connectivity, DDoS protection and 24/7 technical support in our Istanbul TIER 3 data center. Our ATX server colocation price starts from 4.500 ₺ + VAT per month.
Server colocation (co-location) is the service in which you place your own physical server in a professional data center. You ship your server by courier or hand it over in person; our team places it in the rack, connects power and network, assigns your IP addresses and sends you your KVM access details. From then on you manage your server remotely, as if it were right beside you.
The ATX colocation plan costs 4.500 ₺ + VAT per month and includes ATX case space, 200 W of power, 50 Mbps of traffic, a 1 Gbps port, 5 IPv4 addresses, KVM over IP and Phoenix Guard DDoS protection. It can be upgraded with 300/400/500 W of power (+850/+1.700/+2.550 ₺), 100/200/300 Mbps of traffic (+1.875/+4.375/+6.875 ₺) and a 10 Gbps port (+250 ₺); for needs above 500 W and 300 Mbps we provide a custom quote. You can see the total instantly in the price calculator on this page.
Rack server colocation costs 3.800 ₺ + VAT per month for 1U. 2U is +200 ₺, 3U +400 ₺ and 4U +700 ₺. Power, traffic and port options are the same as for ATX colocation.
The difference is your server's case type. ATX colocation is for tower and desktop-style cases; it lets you host systems built with high-frequency desktop processors (e.g. AMD Ryzen, Intel Core) without moving them to a rack chassis. Rack colocation is for 19-inch standard 1U–4U rack servers (e.g. Dell PowerEdge, HPE ProLiant, Supermicro). Network, power, IP and support services are the same in both plans.
The power value is the energy capacity reserved for your server. 200 W is included in the plans; for systems with higher consumption you can choose 300 W, 400 W or 500 W. For power needs above 500 W we provide a custom quote. If you are not sure about your server's approximate consumption, send us your hardware details and we will choose the right power plan together.
Port speed (1 Gbps or 10 Gbps) is the speed of the physical link that connects your server to the network. Traffic (from 50 Mbps) is the bandwidth reserved for your server and is measured with the 95th-percentile method. For example, if you choose a 1 Gbps port and 50 Mbps of traffic, your server is connected to a 1 Gbps port and uses 50 Mbps of bandwidth. You can upgrade your traffic plan as your needs grow; a custom quote is provided above 300 Mbps.
Your traffic usage is sampled at regular intervals throughout the month. At the end of the month the samples are sorted from highest to lowest and the top 5% are disregarded; the highest remaining value is taken as the traffic you used. Thanks to this method, short traffic peaks do not affect your bill. The same metering method is used in our server colocation and BGP/GRE tunnel DDoS protection services.
5 IPv4 addresses are included in every server colocation plan. You can manage the reverse DNS (rDNS/PTR) records and DDoS profiles of your IP addresses through the free IDS panel.
All plans include free 24/7 KVM over IP access. With KVM you reach your server's screen, keyboard and BIOS remotely and carry out tasks such as operating system installation, BIOS settings and reboots without coming to the data center.
With our remote hands support, our technical team works physically on your server according to your instructions: simply open a support ticket for tasks such as a reboot, cable and connection checks, or disk or hardware replacement.
Yes. The servers you colocate sit on our Phoenix Guard network and XDP/eBPF-based Layer 3/4/7 DDoS protection is included in the plan. The IDS panel, where you can assign game or service profiles to your IP addresses and monitor attack logs, is also free. You can see records of the attacks Phoenix Guard has blocked on our DDoS protection service page.
You can ship your server by courier or hand it over in person at our data center. Once it arrives, it is placed in the rack, power and network are connected and IPs are assigned; your KVM and IP details are then sent to you. Setup is usually completed the same day.
Ship your server in a sturdy, impact-resistant box with heavy parts such as the graphics card and cooler secured. In the BIOS, enable automatic power-on after a power cut (Restore on AC Power Loss: Power On). Attach a label with your name and order details to the case. You can install the operating system beforehand or do it over KVM after delivery.
No. Server colocation prices are monthly and exclude 20% VAT. The price calculator also shows the VAT-inclusive total for the configuration you choose.
If you have your own hardware or want full control over it, server colocation is more economical in the long run: you invest in the hardware once and pay only the monthly colocation fee. If you don't want to buy hardware, dedicated server rental is suitable, and for smaller, more flexible needs VDS server hosting.
Yes. Game servers such as FiveM, Minecraft, Metin2, CS2 and Rust benefit from high single-core performance. ATX colocation lets you host the high-frequency desktop-processor systems that deliver this performance without moving them to a rack chassis. Phoenix Guard's game profiles can be assigned to your IP addresses from the IDS panel.
