Afforadable Windows VPS with lot of CPU horse-power

erishy

VZ Type:
ANY!

Number of Cores: preferably at least 6, But they need to actually be powerful.

RAM: 8gb +
Disk Space: doesn't really matter
Disk Type: same

DDoS Protection:
No
Number of IPs:
1
Location:
Europe.

Budget:
up to 50$ monthly.

Billing period:
Monthly

so, the most important thing is to actually have powerful CPU.

What about this in Netherlands?

8GB RAM | 150GB SSD | 4 Cores | 8TB Monthly Bandwidth | 1 IPv4 | /80 IPv4
$25.20 Monthly with Promo Code M9T3LWQN9D - ORDER HERE

I'd happily bump this up to 6 cores for you, or the 12GB RAM package meets your budget as well and includes 6 cores as standard. These are on AMD EPYC 7302P CPUs.

Are there any benchmarks or something like that that can give me estimate for the power of it?

Does that imply the geekbench score will be close to 6000 for the 6 core plan?

If you can budge on the EU requirement you could get a slice in Vegas? Ryzen cores, ~4Ghz all time.

Contabo and install windows by rescue mode

This looks like a job for @seriesn /Nexusbytes.

They use to include complimentary windows license for annual orders.

Maybe you can work out a quarterly cycle or something with a adjusted rate.

well, i have bought actually a 2-core vps from nexus bytes, but the only problem i have with it is the storage, i would love to get loads of hdd storage.. in comparsion contao seems to have lots of disk space but the unoffical windows support is really annoying lol

Hiya,
Thank you for joining the family boss. Happy to have you .

We do offer couple of options for upgrading disk spaces (both NVME and HDD) with "decent" pricing .

https://nexusbytes.com/kvm-vps-hosting.html -> Available upgrades .

Can't really compare anyone with Contabo in this industry haha. They really offer some unique deals.

But also being recently "bought out" by the company who owns Cpanel/WHMCS/Solusvm, I would safely assume that a price hike is coming. Sooner or later.

Of course cheap isn’t going to be easy.

I was able to setup a windows 2019 server on contabo for $7/month. Was 4cores/8gb ram and 200gb SSD. That’s bang for buck on a budget.

I followed this:

https://savepearlharbor.com/?p=294698

took a few tries to do it (I believe he has a few commands backwards) but it does work. I was working on doing a script that would automate it but have been busy/sidetracked to finish it up.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Saw this new link maybe which is better but I haven't tried it yet.

Do you bring an own windows license, or does windows have to be included in the price?

I have my own license.
