Choose the right server for your needs:

VPS (Shared vCPU)

Shares physical resources with other virtual servers on the same physical machine. You are allocated a specific portion of CPU (cores), RAM, and disk space. However, access to these resources may be limited or affected by other users on the server, unlike with a VDS.

VDS (Dedicated vCPU)

Provides fully dedicated resources such as CPU cores, RAM, and disk space. This guarantees consistent performance and ensures your server operates independently from others on the same physical host.

VDS with GPU

Each VPS comes with a fully dedicated GPU — one physical GPU per virtual server, without sharing. This guarantees consistent GPU performance for compute-intensive workloads such as ML, rendering, or video processing. CPU and RAM resources, however, are shared among all VPS on the host, allowing for efficient resource utilization while keeping costs reasonable.

What customers say

After launching another successful IP — HUNT: Showdown, a competitive first-person PvP bounty hunting game with heavy PvE elements, Crytek aimed to bring this amazing game for its end-users. We needed a hosting provider that can offer us high-performance servers with great network speed, latency, and 24/7 support.
