What exactly is wrong with KS-GAME-2 again if you're regurgitating the exact price and specs?
Maybe he doesn't want to pay setup fee for 7 years old hardware
For a few bucks more, you can get something beefier, just saying. Especially if your goal is total compute power, not per-core processing. And especially if you're in it for the long haul.
@RoyaleHosting would be perfect.
4 vCores (2x Xeon Gold 6130)
32GB DDR4 ECC Ram
200GB NVMe SSD
25TB BW @ 1Gbit
GSL 2.5TBPS DDoS Protection
New York (Evocative EWR1)
29 eur = Slightly more than 30 USD.
This is the exact reason. Happy with specs and price but not keen on paying the setup fee.
It's only for some hobby game server hosting with Pterodactyl. I had used One-Provider in the past but had issues with their Xeon 1245v2 on a couple more modern game servers (Icarus specifically).
What would you suggest?
Thank you for the mention!
@VyrX if you have any questions regarding the offer, just let us know
Yeah this ticks all the boxes. Are there any active promos before I purchase?
Gold 6130 has worse ST than 4790k according to passmark FYI.
You might be better off with a VPS/VDS. For example you can get 4 dedicated 7950X cores and 16GB DDR5 RAM for $28/mo: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/192029/hosteons-free-vps-9-dc-locations-us-eu-10g-port-intel-ryzen-kvm-ovz-vps-vds-hybrid/p1
Although you'll probably need to shop around for good DDoS protection.
That offer only has locations for SLC, Dallas and LA. Latency is too high to these locations for me. Needs to be New York or Quebec ideally. I did check their New York servers but they're out of my price range for the specs I'm looking for.
Maybe @PureVoltage can help, check if they are single-homed tho.

This is definitely outside of price range considering OP is asking for 32GB ram.
Thanks for the suggestion but that's triple the price range I've put in my original post.
Sadly enough there are no ongoing discounts at the moment unless you would like to order for a longer period at the same time
They seem to be singlehomed to HE in New York, and HE is definitely not a great carrier for anything latency focused. Their network is more "volume focused", great if you want to push hundreds of TB a month for cheap and don't want to worry about routing, latency etc. I don't know if I'd run game servers with them, not really the usecase they're designed for.
You can ask them for a custom offer.
Not single homed.
