Looking for dedicated server in NA, gbps, high bandwidth limit, i7 processor
Looking for a dedicated server in NA with the following requirements:
- VERY GOOD PEERING
- 1 gbps port
- 30TB+ Bandwidth limit, preferably higher
- i7 processor (6700k, 7700k, 8700k)
- Under $130/month, preferably around 100.
- 16GB-32GB Ram
- Low storage (Don't need much storage, just 1 SSD so I don't want to waste my money on it)
If you have anything close to these requirements, please throw it at me, I am a little flexible except it MUST have an i7 processor(need quick sync).
Don't recommend noxic, they are sold out.

Have you tried wholesaleinternet? (Its a joke)
SYS Game dedis may be worth taking a look, for your budget you can take 2 of them.
All of there i7s are out of stock.

I think I know what you need it for, Plex? right? I'd suggest not to bother with hardware transcoding, the quality is worse then software transcoding, and you can get a much higher performing xeon with higher passmark for cheaper. My 2c, however that OVH box ticks all your requirements.
Thanks, for the suggestion! It is for plex. OVH bandwidth is way to low for me, 250mbps won't cut it. My issue with just software transcoding is you lose so much, an i7 7700k with 15k passmark can transcode over 20 streams while an xeon with 20k passmark could do 10.
Can get 1230v3 + 50TB transit for ~$120 from Hivelocity in Tampa. But is an E3, not an i7. You can also look at ReliableSite, although I think their bandwidth upgrades are pretty expensive. Maybe you can get a discount with a custom quote.
I really wanted to use reliablesite, but the bandwidth was to low for me, they have great peering though.
1230v3 has no quick sync, which I need.
It bursts to 1gbps, the only time you will have an issue with that is you have continuous 6+ streams more then 95% of the time, that is 20 hours each day, extremely unlikely, to give you an idea, I have close to 55+ users on my plex server and that has never been the case.
Alright, I will look into OVH then, I have 15 users now, and just last night I had 8 concurrent streams.
Are you high? Ovh doesn't have more than 250mbps port on i7 and their peering is ok at best. Reliablesite has i7 dedis matching all your requirements except they only have 10TB of transfer
