    Your new site build a vps is confusing. I selected a yearly option 6/yr and it tells me I owe $21.00 today?

    There is no 6$ VPS.
    6$ (p year) is basic charge, then you pay for CPU/RAM/Storage (in amounts you need aka SLIIIIIIIIIDERS) etc to make it actually work :D

    You can assume 6$ per year is IPv4 + 1 GB of RAM cost (as those are Free on that summary)

    6+6+6+3.6 = 21.6

    Accurate (and thank you for explaining), but it is confusing because the monthly/quarterly/yearly buttons only reflect the base product pricing. Just us bumping into limitations of existing stack and debating fixing it on someone else's code or just moving to something custom (much more likely, even if just theming).

    However, I just couldn't justify continually pushing the deployment off. Hardware has been racked for months, I'm sure a lot of hosts feel this pain. Waiting on our perfect wish-list of items especially if it's sometimes out of our control just wasn't feasible any longer. There's also bound to be things we missed/didn't realize that get found by the VM winners.

  • I received the DM from OP on winning a VPS. Looks good. :D

    There's a workaround further up in this thread. I actually just checked out with the PayPal option and then backed out as PayPal was loading. This generated an invoice that was unpaid, you can then go into the billing system and pay the unpaid invoice with credit.

    361 comments on this forum.

    How do you expect anyone to help you without any details, screen, description? No one knows what is the 'on error', no one knows what you trying to buy, no one knows what you doing?

    or you just wanted to ask "it is working?" then answer is "yes, it is working, it's you".

    still waiting for yearly loading...

    Page 1:

    On February 1, we're going to discontinue new deployments of these hypervisors.

    You'll be waiting quite awhile. Unless some naturally become available that's basically the end of the yearly's.

    VM Winners Update

    Messages are going out now re: VM winners. Website push finally happened. Here's the new ordering process.

    Rather than give you a fixed 2c/2gb VM for a year per the initial post, we're going to give you $43.20 USD of platform credit. This would cover that VM for a year. Or it would cover something with less resources for longer or significantly beefier for shorter. It's up to you.

    I'm sure there are still going to be some typos/slight bugs (a lot of the 'More Info' dedicated pages are not pushed yet for example) hopefully the freedom to select what resources are most important to you and more efficiently assign the resources is a better end-user experience.

    Other prizes will be contacted (if not already) and delivered this week now that everything is being pushed and ready. Very much appreciate all the patience <3

    EDIT: PA news coming in subsequent reply.

    With this credit i can buy all service you sell? Like storage? Thanks @crunchbits

    Yep, confirming. Credit used anywhere, good as cash in our system.

    Normal servers like dedi's? Available, just basically "built-to-order" as we still can't get ahead of queue to prebuild common configs yet.

  • @crunchbits - Congrats on your new pricing system - https://crunchbits.com/vps - on these build-a-VPS machines -- great job! And great prices too, bravo!

    BTW, what are the differences between "balanced", "CPU optimized", and "memory optimized" variants in terms of hardware, etc.? The prices all seem different, even accounting for setting the same/similar specs, and the core count seems different too (24 v 32 core), so I assume one is on Xeon and another on Epyc... but if you could elaborate a little more on the differences, that would be helpful.

    And which one would be better at hosting static content?

    Which one for a php-based website/app (like forum software, wordpress, etc.)?

    Also, is the network at Allentown upgraded yet to more than one connection?

    Thanks!

    Thank you sir :)

    BTW, what are the differences between "balanced", "CPU optimized", and "memory optimized" variants in terms of hardware, etc.?

    There will be a more in-depth breakdown on the "more info" pages (currently WIP not pushed live) but the general gist:

    • They all have to do with us blueprinting the hardware on our side to make repeatable, easily configurable builds as well as massively simplify our logistics.
    • Balanced: the hardware backing the node is a balance of CPU:RAM and priced accordingly. Best suited (pricing-wise) if you're looking for 4c/4g type of setup.
    • CPU Optimized: hardware in these nodes has more of an emphasis on CPU cores. This will skew the node to having more CPU cores for the same amount of RAM. If you're doing something that requires more cores, but you don't need to pay (and waste) on RAM? This is where you want to be. I.e. 16c/4g
    • RAM Optimized: hardware in these nodes has significantly more RAM, so the balance favors RAM over CPU cores.

    While I don't have any problems sharing specs of the nodes, I want to be careful "promising" anything as we won't be able to migrate around to get a "certain CPU" but I also keep full passthrough on for performance/visibility. The general builds right now are along the lines of:

    Balanced & RAM: Xeon Scalable Gold based systems
    CPU Optimized: EPYC Zen2/3 (vast majority) and Xeon Scalable Platinum based systems

    All of them use the same NVMe drives, same ports, same RAM. All of them are going to be base clock ~2GHz and boost clock in the upper 3GHz range. All of them are set (and planned around) performance settings within the BIOS.

    And which one would be better at hosting static content?

    Tough call, I'm tempted to say whatever is the cheapest combination of minimum specs? I'd lean towards CPU Optimized unless the RAM ends up being too low for the use-case.

    Which one for a php-based website/app (like forum software, wordpress, etc.)?

    If we're sticking to just the DIY (and not counting VDS stuff), I think the same as previous answer. Again, I might give the edge to CPU Optimized but it all depends on what balance you need.

    If you're going for hardcore single-threaded performance then there's really only one (or two) answers: 7950X or i9-14900K (Soon™)

    Also, is the network at Allentown upgraded yet to more than one connection?

    For primary: No. We still have failover backups, but that is a BGP session failover which is not perfectly seamless and incredibly annoying.

    I'll take some time now to give a brief update here.
    Allentown, PA will be moving approximately 1 hour to Valley Forge, PA.
    Reasons (as much detail as I can give without getting into trouble):

    • There was an issue over expansion capabilities/agreements, and despite being likely in the right we're the (much) smaller fish compared to a certain publicly traded green giant.
    • The solution that worked out the best was to agree to relocate in exchange for some very nice contractual incentives that allow me to bring flexibility and pricing in PA on-par with WA for all product stacks.
    • With this, we will gain access to additional on-net upstreams but also have the ability to wave/dark fiber our way over to add a ton more flexibility and options that were previously untenable. Big benefit.
    • Nothing here will change, but the move is slated to have the first racks in the new cage ready around mid-May (TBD) so we have not made hard plans here. There will be some downtime to physically migrate gear over, but we'll have upstreams/router/switches/etc all done ahead of time to minimize this impact. Plenty of notices, reminders, and accommodations will be made for existing customers.

    Thanks!
