Nice! Netcup has always recent hardware.
But I don't even want to get it! Am I cured?
maybe not cured, maybe you only have a wife and you don't want to get chased by her with a pan in her hand (again)
Fortunately it is too expensive for my use case
when going on sale, end of this month?
What was CPU on previous generation? To me it was 'visually' Epyc 9xxx so I have no idea
It was EPYC 9634, here is the geekbench results for comparison:
Not much of an upgrade compared to offers from other LET providers or their previous generation.
Pretty great for long term contracts
mine:
feel free to use my affiliate coupon in signature for 5 euros off first month
When we don't choose the location, do you guys know which location will the server more likely be? They probably have a lot of capacity left in NUE but it might be cheaper for them to provision servers in Austria (as it's their own DC there)...
for epyc, you look at the last digit for generation, which is kinda the only thing that matters for vps's
I have noticed it to be almost always Germany.
Most of the time it will be provided in Austria unless it is one of their old gen offers.
Thanks guys. If I try I'll report back
If only VM-x/AMD-V was enabled....
What is it
virtualization support to run KVM in a KVM virtual machine. also called nested virtualization
Here's the AMD EPYC lineup and the launch date of the CPUs:
AMD EPYC Naples 7001 (June 2017)
AMD EPYC Rome 7002 (August 2019)
AMD EPYC Milan 7003 (March 2021)
AMD EPYC Genoa 9004 (November 2022)
AMD EPYC Turin 9005 (October 2024)
The previous generation of Netcup rootservers were using AMD EPYC Genoa 9004, specifically the AMD EPYC Genoa 9634, and they are now using the AMD EPYC Turin 9645.
solid!
what are advantages ?
Looks like Netcup also increased the base price slightly on the new G12.
Have you seen the movie inception?
Overall G12 RS seem very good and worth it if you do not have an G11 RS. Still way cheaper then another competitors.
No
have you seen a truck that has another truck loaded?
a truck on a truck on a truck....
nested virtualization is basically this. a vm in a vm in a vm....
so what are the advantages that this structure offer as compared when it is not present ?
so what are the advantages that this structure offer as compared when it is not present ?
Well, more disk, "dedicated" cores, more than double the price, idk.
