Looking for dedi around 20 USD, best CPU/ram for that price, location/disk not so important

Hi, I am looking for a budget dedicated server for computing power for some personal projects. In my case location, bandwidth, and disk type/size are less important. It seems like there is a gap around this price point, where you get many very low end atom machines under this but towards 30 you start getting the Hetzner machines. I am not too picky about CPU type and more concerned about overall benchmark/cores. Does anyone have any offers like this? Thank you!

  • I saw some good server in Hetzner auction. You just need to add a little bit.
    Around 22 Euro or almost $26 server in hetzner is best for you.

  • A good VPS will be better than a dedi at this price point. Consider WisHosting ( @exception0x876 ), ServaRica ( @servarica_hani ), Contabo ( @contabo_m ), HotlineServers ( @hotlineservers ) and NetCup.

  • Maybe consider OneProvider, some Online stuff they resell is not bad - e.g. some E3-1220 v1/v2 for 16€

    I am already with @exception0x876 and have been eyeing the high core packages for a while :) If that's the case with this price point that's good to know.

    Around 22 Euro or almost $26 server in hetzner is best for you.

    Really annoying price point, huh? :/

    Considering the amount of energy you burn with a dedicated server and the money it costs, it is more than realistic. And since you also need some cooling for your server and probably want it to be connected to a reliable network, that's pretty cheap.
    If you are okay with 10 year old CPUs, you may find some $20 deals from Dacentec, but that's probably also not what you want.

    You have to make compromises in life. ;) In your case as already mentioned a VPS with dedicated cores will most likely be the best way in order to keep prices low.

    Oh sure, not saying it's not realistic it's just that if you don't know how these things work it's confusing that you have a bunch of very old CPUs/atom cores at around 10-15, then nothing, then you start getting some decent setups at 26+ with Hetzner and so on. I was expecting this was the case for the gap in this price point but I thought I'd poke around to make sure :)

    It’s Geekbench 4 on the E5 vs Geekbench 5 on the ryzen. I don’t know why he did it like this though, as it’s confusing. Maybe to show a higher number? Idk.
