My 1 vCore Ryzen VDS consistently had lower performance than 1 vCore Ryzen VPS
— same provider that you mentioned
I am on their VDS2, 2vcore & 8gb. The only downside was cpu performance, others were above average.
@dev_vps it is better off spend minimum 20 bucks and be at peace with js apps and projects that rely on single core performance.
After the dataforest/avoro mess... I rather just spend the money on a dedicated server than gamble on a "VDS" if I really need dedicated resources.
Nice list
I feel you and I know, its just until I get there, btw what did u end up using?
I have 2 cheap dedi from OneProvider/Scaleway, 1 from ReliableSite @MrRadic and I just got another from @PulsedMedia
Speaking of it... @DataIdeas-Josh has a Ryzen 5700U Dedicated Server for sale for $39.99/m
But the bench score you got is close to baremetal no? This is also Geekbench 6:

would hetzner cloud work for you?
Thank you for the shoutout!
@azamatsh The little ryzen boxes are quite a powerhouse and its customizable with upgradable NVMe and RAM!
I've used their dedicated cloud plan and recommend hetzner, UI is very nice plus firewall and API is superb. However not best for single core performance.
OP you neither mentioned anything in regards to your intended use case nor give any kind of budget so it's kinda hard to make recommendations. I second @concept in that if you want dedicated resources you should get a dedi. If you are looking for 3000+ single core passmark with a budget of $10 real dedis will obviously be pretty much nonexistent but with a more modest expectation $10-$20 would already get you some kind of bare metal (there's even AMD APUs at $5/m but now that's really modest...).
Edit: I still can't shake off the feeling that this is just yet another mining thread...
You need strong single thread computing power?
if so, is it 24x7
I never ever dealt with mining till this day so shake it off for good. My use case is js apps and mostly single core thread performance.

Hi
Sorry that you think we are overselling, but there is no overselling done
You bought a VDS with Dedicated vCORE and not a Physical Core
vCore is a thread of physical core (Physical core has 2 Threads), so if the other thread is in use by another VDS then you can't expect it to work like a physical core as it's shared between two VDS
Regarding Refund it's clearly mentioned in our TOS Payments are not refundable
But you still filed a PayPal dispute we did refunded you
Most of the business here have the same policy of no refunds
You got exactly as per the specs advertised
This is exactly same experience I had with 1 vCore dedicated VPS having worse performance than 1 vCore fair share VPS.
Having said that I don’t think you are overselling. Moreover the support was excellent.
I just chose not to renew the monthly vps.
— having policy of refund on cases like this should be considered. Just my suggestion
Hi
Thanks for commenting on this
When a customer buys a VDS with Dedicated vCores they all expect to use it at 100%
When you buy a VPS with fair share you of course can't use it at 100% all the time, but you can burst it to 100% for short intervals
So when you buy a Fair Share CPU VPS you may get better Benchmark results as the other vCore might be free or may be you had a VPS with more cores then VDS
But with VDS you get a fixed vCore and if other core is also at 100% you may find the benchmark results lower then shared core as the shared core is not at 100% usage
Clients who need more CPU can always buy a VDS with more vCores
Of course if you need Single Core performance of a Physical Core I'm sure there are providers who provide VDS with Physical Core but they even charge accordingly
Also these benchmark results keeps changing depending upon if the node is full or empty also at what time of day is the benchmark being done
With low end market refund is not possible as there are tons of churn and burn clients
Moreover with low end market, the provider has to bare the PayPal fees while refunding
And it's not like something hidden that payments are not refundable it's common to not refund in low end market, I just did not wanted to fight the PayPal dispute so just refunded it, but providers should consider before accepting clients who file dispute inspite of getting the resources as advertised and also accepting the TOS before ordering.
Thanks
I totally understand your viewpoint.
My suggestion is to include some kind of disclaimer with 1 vCore dedicated since core hyperthread performance can vary a lot.
2 vCore dedicated = 1 physical core dedicated is much better VDS from performance point of view.
some customers will be unhappy and will seek varied recourse including refund, it is pretty much cost of doing business.
how does hetzner vds compare with clouvider vps?
go for a low cost/budget dedi..... preferable with a small SSD to speed up IO.
