Hi everyone,
Looking to pick up a KVM VPS to host 5–7 MT4/MT5 trading terminals.
Minimum Required Specs:
CPU: 4+ vCPU / vCores (prefer decent single-core performance)
RAM: 8 GB
Storage: 60 GB+ NVMe or SSD
Location: US (Dallas, Chicago, NY/NJ) or EU (London/Frankfurt) preferred
OS Support: Ability to mount/install my own Windows Server 2019 ISO (I have my own license) or pre-loaded Windows Server ISO with VirtIO drivers.
Budget:
~$5.00 to $8.00 / month (or $60–$75 / year if annual)
If any providers have active stock or custom/secret promo links matching this, please drop your offers below or send me a PM.
Thanks!

what is your sustained cpu usage...if 100% then it might not be feasible for us.
Hey @luxinterior,
To be upfront, we're in Eygelshoven in the Netherlands, right at the German border near Aachen, so not London or Frankfurt, and 4 cores come in above your budget. On our EPYC configurator you get your exact specs with 4 cores (AMD EPYC Zen 3 Milan, ECC DDR4), 8 GB RAM, 60 GB NVMe in RAID 1, 1 IPv4 and an IPv6 /64 for 10.89€/mo, or 9.80€/mo with code LET10. Paid for 12 months it comes to 8.82€/mo with LET10.
Your own Windows Server 2019 ISO is no problem, we mount custom ISOs through a ticket. If you want to see how the terminals run first, we can set up a 3-day test server through skrime.eu/support. Traffic is unmetered with no monthly cap, on a 10 Gbps shared port.
Order: skri.me/epyc-config
Test IPv4: 77.90.60.30 | Test IPv6: 2a09:3f00:3000::cafe
Looking Glass: skrime.eu/network / AS215365
Thanks for the responses.
I'm currently looking at a GreenCloud EPYC plan (4 vCPU / 8GB RAM / 60GB NVMe) around the $20/quarter mark as my baseline benchmark for this project.
Before I lock that in, I wanted to check if any other providers here have comparable EPYC/Ryzen setups in US East (Ashburn/NY/Chicago) on quarterly billing that can match that performance tier or offer a bit more storage headroom (80–100GB).
Appreciate all the input!
