Test | Value

Single Core | 952

Full Test | https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/4072324
I installed Windows Server 2022 on it and tested for common use cases
Windows Idle test
The cpu utilization was below 2% and it indicates powerful vCore that is not oversold.
Windows RDP test with standard browsing
I connected from 2k monitor (2560x1440) and usage was pretty smooth.
Windows YouTube 720p test
Video display over RDP was pretty smooth
Windows YouTube 1080p test
Video display over RDP was pretty smooth. Here most of the VPS (under $5/month) fail
Windows YouTube 1440p test
Video display over RDP was decent (but not very smooth). But it is still much better than expected from 2 vCore VPS
SQL Server Developer Version
Installed and performed SQL queries. Worked great.
PyCharm for Python coding
worked great and tested with telegram bot
Overall great working VPS with excellent support for Windows RDP
the cost was less than $30 per year
Highly Recommended
Comments
Thank you very much for your review
No problem.
I got the VPS in Sep 2023, I took little time before writing the review.
@Hosteroid
Here as soon as windows programs are closed and idle state, the cpu utilization is around 2% even on RDP session
Thank you @dev_vps !
Its really nice of clients to write positive reviews as with just one problem some clients will rush to write a negative review, but getting a positive review in public is not easy, unless the client is really happy and believes that he/she should appreciate the provider they won't write it.
Criticising is very easy, but appreciating somebody for the good they offer is really cool
Kudos to @dev_vps for taking out time to write a public review and @Hosteroid for providing such services ...
I have said it many times, your VDS with one dedicated core is among the best value/performance VPS on LET.
It is hard to beat dedicated core, as I do not need to worry about exceeding allocated average cpu utilization (that is mostly around 25 to 35%)
Having said that with budget of around $20 per year, @Hosteroid VPS is the best value
All depends on the use cases and budget
I'm not yet a Hosteroid customer, but based on @dev_vps 's review , it's a great VPS for idling use cases.
Yeah I appreciate it and I really appreciate it when clients write positive reviews even of my competitors as it's really difficult to get these positive reviews from most of the clients, does not matter how good the services are, but most of the clients won't post positive reviews, and I don't blame the clients for that as they are just getting the service they are paying for, but it feels good when somebody appreciates it and of course it is good for business and also help other users in the community to choose the right provider
And for causal Windows RDP
SQL Server or PostgreSQL database server
Python coding
Telegram bot
Bogging site
and many more use cases
Try doing this on any other VPS (under $20 per year)
Windows RDP session from 2k monitor
Going to order a second one after this review. Didn't realize it could run Windows - this may just be my first Windows VPS.
@Hosteroid is the nvme raided by chance or a single nvme drive?
How long has this provider been in business?
Hey, It is a RAID10
Since 2018

Looking good, thanks!
