I wonder where the breaking point is, because prices keep going up while the service gets worse, the network goes down often, and support takes an average of eight days to reply to emails (something the CEO himself recently admitted on the forum).
Believe me, you'll also become my neighbor in a week. I'll reserve a cave for you.

GREAT
we're fucked
and I really wanted to buy a VPS the other day, I don't know why I didn't do it
Prices still seem good for their root server (which are dedicated/guaranteed resources). If you don't need dedicated resources their normal VPS are still cheap. 16GB RAM for 14 euro/mo.. definitely no need for anyone to be concerned unless I'm misunderstanding something.
You are looking at their VPS Lite prices (old cpu).
Normal VPS with 16GB on a monthly contract is €26.01 + VAT.
RS with 16GB €39.33 + VAT.
The good part is that existing contracts are renewed at the old price.
Existing contracts remain unchanged (= they will not be increased)
Thank God~~~for the new price, i need pay another 50 euros per month
I have never angry thanked someone so fast in my life.
weird, their website states; "At netcup, cost transparency and reliability are our top priorities. Our prices are calculated fairly and clearly right from the start - with no hidden fees. They remain unchanged even after the first year."
Now it's > @xvps said:
Well, if you select monthly contract and a specific location (i.e. DE/Nurmberg) it is 53,83 € incl VAT.
Way too much. I'll keep my old RS, but if they also triple the price aligning to the new G12.5, I'll leave for sure. Also new storage is only 265GB (instead of 1TB), which I think is not enough for most customers.
or imagine someone would tell @ehab will be the LET sex symbol !
Ou Vi Eich!
It looks like their servers use DDR5 which is about $34 - 36/GB. So this 4GB entry level server would take about 8 months to break even and that's just for the RAM portion. There are other costs associated too. I think their prices are reasonable for the newest generation CPU and RAM.
maybe they can sell "old" CPU and RAM for "old" price, my old RS ( G11 iv ) are working fine for years, and i don't need the "newest" CPU and RAM for "newest" price
Yeah ram and flash storage prices just got insane.
Like one 128GB memory module easily costs like 4500€ on the market (I had to do with a server vendor lately, they told me list prices of 5 digits per 96GB DIMM). And that's the "oh I better should be fast to get it" price. The market is sold out. It's hard to get hundreds or thousands of those.
You need for those AMD CPUs anyway 12 or 24 dimms for optimal performance. So memory alone is 50k nowadays. Add enough flash Storage.
I guess for just the storage and memory of one server you could buy a Porsche
And the next big challenge is the Iran war with the strait of hormus.
Oil prices are also going up. That will significantly increase logistic prices to ship the hardware from China around the world.
Also oil prices will have an effect on electricity production and on the long term, electricity prices will also go up.
Let us hope that china is not going to invade Taiwan, otherwise if TSMC gets into trouble there... I don't want to think about the consequences of TSMC unable to produce...
The currently deployed branch of "Earth - Simulation of Mankind" is just a very shitty one
Okay, no need to read further
lol wow, why are people so hype about them?
I hereby reserve all rights to the following LET thread titles:

Thank goodness I didn't sell my idlers.
if we stop buying and their socks keep growing, guess what will happen ?
Anexia is overdoing their purchases and runs into the ground.
Alex likes to play big CEO with his tower in Klagenfurt but on scale Anexia is nothing.
