Seattle vps/vds

Hi all,
I am looking for a server in the Seattle area.
I have a few requirements:

  • CPU doesn't need to be new but I would like at least 4 cores
  • nested virtualization, not a hard requirement but definitely a big plus
  • at least 12-16 gigs of ram
  • 2 ips
  • ipv6 would be nice, but not a requirement (tunnelbroker.net FTW)
  • at least 200gb of SSD storage, but I'm more flexible here
  • port 25 open (for legitimate email) on at least one of the ips
  • reverse DNS
  • decently/known for reliability
    Can this be done for under $20/month? I'm with contabo right now and I'm happy with their performance but I feel like I always have to worry about their reliability.
    Thank you

    @crunchbits has something within Washington state if that’s enough.

    Thanks for the pings @dev_vps and @Francisco

    Spokane, WA customized VPS will be restocking shortly. Should meet all of your needs. VDS line-up will too, if the fixed size plans are a better match. 25 is disabled by default, but we open it on a customer-by-customer basis with a ticket.

    Higher performance Ryzen cores: definitely check out @rsk at Layer
    Higher preference for privacy: I recommend @MannDude with IncogNET

    Just make sure to tell them you want the Washington location ;)

  • Wow @crunchbits, those prices are excellent. 2 questions- Firstly, do you guys have benchmarks anywhere? (Or at least, a YABS score for the $16/month gold 6146 vds?) And secondly, can you purchase more IPs for the VDSs?

  • Let me know when everything gets restocked... My contabo auto-renews on the 19th :wink:

    There's some old benchmarks by @febryanvaldo here: https://kangserver.id/tag/crunchbits/

    Yes, additional IPs are $1/IP/month

    Above replies are correct--I'll get you an updated benchmark for relevant products. Wouldn't hurt for us to post some modern ones anyways. I think most of the stuff online is for Ryzens.

  • @crunchbits are there plans to restock your Spokane VPS inventory?

    This is a special offer for a 4 Core 16GB VDS.
