This is a very powerful option compared to the OVH RISE-S.

Both plans are cheap and performant, but I would choose EX63 because it has double the storage capacity and more cores, while still retaining similar single-threaded performance.
It's kind of a shame to see Hetzner go down on storage in their new configurations. I would choose AX52 over EX63 or RISE-S simply because it has more storage.
The EX63 has a great price-to-performance ratio, but the storage capacity isn’t enough for me. I’m looking forward to seeing whether new servers will be launched in the future.

Ryzen 9700x geekbench is 16k
Intel ultra 7 is 20k
All comes down to your use case, for some tasks I would choose OVH, for others hetzner.
For me it's OVH. Fairly equal price/performance but OVH seems to be in a direction of launching stuff and giving more for less whereas Hetzner seems to be in a direction of giving less for more.
Despite the spec, +1 for OVH.
And Hetzner doesn't have KS-A or KS-Mystery.
I sincerely hate OVH control panel and billing. Isn't about price and specs, just an unbearable UX that matters to me.
