HostDoc LES Ryzen LA Special

Today, we have with us the HostDoc LES Ryzen LA offer that is unusual because it is the first AMD Ryzen VPS offering that is being offered by them! They join the select few hosts on The Whitelist such as ExtraVM and Nexus Bytes in offering AMD-based VPSes. The specs of this latest offering from HostDoc is as follows:

  • AMD Ryzen 3900X @ 3.80GHz
  • 4 vCPU
  • 4GB RAM
  • 50GB Disk
  • NVME
  • 5TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • £4.99 per month (annual payment; otherwise £6.99 per month)
  • KVM Virtualization

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology (using the lower £4.99 amount) is as follows:

Compared to REBOX1, which is also an AMD VPS, the value of this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is acceptable in terms host node single-core Passmark and disk type. Although HostDoc’s Ryzen 3900X is a little more powerful than the Ryzen 3700X which our REBOX1 uses and similar Nvme storage type, the higher asking price pulled down its value in these areas.

Aside from these two aspects, this HostDoc Ryzen offering goes head to head with our REBOX1 in every other aspect and completely obliterates the REBOX1 with a blazing 10 Gbps port speed (a rare offering for lowend boxes).

The overall LEBRE score of 137 suggests that this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is of excellent value compared to the reference REBOX1. You are pretty much getting the value of REBOX1 except that this HostDoc offer is on steriods in terms of port speed. If we put value aside, in terms of the raw specs, this HostDoc offering will beat many of the Intel VPSes on the market because of the powerful Ryzen 3900X, which can outperform even low-end dedicated machines. If you are shopping for a low end VPS that can rival cheap dedicated machines at a fraction of the cost, this HostDoc offer is your answer.

TL;DR If you missed out on the REBOX1 previously, don’t miss out on this Ryzen VPS that is just as good value for money, but leaves REBOX1 in the dust when it comes to port speed.

Stocks are limited and if you don’t want to miss out this first ever HostDoc LES Ryzen LA deal, buy your box immediately and support HostDoc, who is on The Whitelist.

HostHatch Nvme Black Friday 2019 Special

HostHatch has entered the Black Friday 2019 game pretty late, but they have come into the game pulling no punches at all. They are now offering their HostHatch Nvme Black Friday 2019 Special with the following specs:

  • Intel Xeon E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz
  • 2 vCPU
  • 2GB RAM
  • 20GB disk storage
  • NVME disk type
  • 10TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • $2.50 per month
  • KVM Virtualization
  • Location: Chicago and London

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology is as follows:

Where do we even begin? Many of the lowend VPS we have looked at often are much stronger in value than our reference REBOX1 in some aspects but are also much weaker than it in other aspects. This box from HostHatch IS NOT inferior to our REBOX1 in any aspect. Its two weakest aspects, which are the CPU Passmark scores and the disk size are actually pretty close to our REBOX1 in terms of value.

And those are where the similarities end. It offers tremendous value in terms of the number of vCPUs, RAM and disk type, beating our already excellent value REBOX1. What truly left our reference box in the dust are the bandwidth and port speeds. You get 10TB monthly bandwidth with a 10Gbps port at just $2.50 a month.

Yes, you read that right. If that is not insane for a lowend box, then the word insanity needs to be redefined. The overall LEBRE score of 327 is, you might have guessed what we are going to say, INSANE. Our current highest score of 281 (the UltraVPS.eu Black Friday 2019 SAS Special) has been dethroned.

TL;DR For just $2.50 per month, you get a high-performing box that you can stream, upload and download at blazing speeds without worry. Why is your credit card still in your wallet?

If you don’t want to have regrets of missing out on this massive HostHatch Nvme Black Friday 2019 offer, head on to HostHatch’s client portal, deposit your funds and raise a ticket to buy this box andto support HostHatch, who is on The Whitelist.

Pro-tip: For another $7 per month, you can get a 3TB Black Friday 2019 storage server from HostHatch at the same locations. Use something like SSHFS to mount the storage server onto this box and this VPS suddenly has an extra 3TB space, can easily matching or even exceeding the performance of low-end dedicated storage servers for a fraction of the price.

HostDoc LA Black Friday 2019 Special

It seems like the HostDoc Black Friday 2019 Dallas Dual Compute offer that we featured earlier has been sold out! Fret not, the doctor still has some really potent Black Friday 2019 deals that have been quietly hidden away. The specs of this HostDoc LA Black Friday 2019 offer is as follows:

  • Intel Core i9-9900K @ 3.60GHz
  • 3 vCPU
  • 4GB RAM
  • 20GB + 70GB Disk
  • NVME + HDD Disk Type
  • 4TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • £4.17 per month (annual payment; otherwise £4.99 per month)
  • KVM Virtualization
  • Location: Los Angeles

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology (using the lower £4.17 amount) is as follows:

This HostDoc Black Friday LA offer is a very well-rounded contender. Compared to REBOX1, it offers decent value in terms of CPU Passmark scores and disk type. It pretty much almost goes toe-to-toe with our REBOX1 in terms of number of vCPUs and bandwidth offered. As for the rest, it is ahead of our reference box by miles.

The RAM and the disk space outperformed our reference REBOX1, and once again its blazing 10 Gbps port speed is something our reference box cannot compare with, and we would like to remind you against that this port speed is a very rare offering for lowend boxes.

The overall LEBRE score of 165 suggests that this HostDoc LA Black Friday offer clearly out-gunned our reference REBOX1. It fell short by a bit, however, when measured against the HostDoc Black Friday 2019 Dallas Dual Compute offer that we shared earlier, but it didn’t fall short by too much. If you missed that offer, this one has slipped under the radar and offers you similar performance. Don’t let this one slip by too!

TL;DR A lowend box that is well-designed to handle loads comparable to lowend dedicated machines. A well-kept secret that you should grab before it’s gone too.

If you don’t want to have regrets of missing out on this HostDoc LA Black Friday 2019 offer, buy your box immediately and support HostDoc, who is on The Whitelist.

UltraVPS.eu Black Friday 2019 SAS Special

UltraVPS is an established hosting company operating since 1999 and they are now offering an UltraVPS.eu Black Friday 2019 offer that is almost impossible to refuse. The specs of this offer is as follows:

  • Intel Xeon E5-2690v2 host node
  • 2 vCPU
  • 4GB RAM
  • 100GB Disk
  • HDD Disk Type (SAS)
  • 5TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • $3.1 per month (quarterly price without VAT for non-EU customers; otherwise €3.33 per month)
  • KVM Virtualization
  • Location: Germany or Netherlands

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology (using the lower $3.10 amount) is as follows:

In terms of getting the best bang for every dollar, it’s a bloodbath; this UltraVPS offer beat REBOX1 in most of the LEBRE measures by a wide margin. The only weakness is the disk type as it is using HDD as the storage medium, BUT one has to be aware this is not the usual SCSI HDD. This UltraVPS.eu offer uses SAS HDD, which is extremely high performance and can offer performance comparable to low end SSDs.

This VPS box gives you decent value in terms of CPU performance, excellent value for number of vCPUs offered, and pretty much blows away REBOX1 in terms of RAM, bandwidth and the storage size offered, and the biggest highlight has to be the 10Gbps port speed that is a rarity in lowend VPS offers. Expect blazing speeds transferring large files, especially on the European continent.

The overall LEBRE score of 281 is our highest yet, offering a value that is almost triple of our already excellent REBOX1. At the half the price of a Starbucks coffee, there is no reason not to buy this box if you are only willing pay much lower than the $7 monthly price cap we set to assess the value of VPS offers using our LEBRE methodology.

TL;DR In terms of value, this box is a champion slayer. If you want one of the best value-for-money boxes this Black Friday, this is probably it.

If you are afraid of missing the UltraVPS.eu Black Friday 2019 SAS Special 1 offer, buy your box like right now (Germany and Netherlands are available options) and support UltraVPS.eu, who is on The Whitelist.

HostDoc Black Friday 2019 Dallas Dual Compute

HostDoc has already started their Black Friday 2019 sales with an even tastier offering than their previous Dallas offer we presented several weeks ago. The specs of this Black Friday 2019 offer is as follows:

  • Intel Xeon Gold 6128 host node
  • 4 vCPU
  • 4GB RAM
  • 25GB + 100GB Disk
  • NVME + HDD Disk Type
  • 1TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • £3.74 per month (annual payment; otherwise £4.49 per month)
  • KVM Virtualization
  • Location: Dallas

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology (using the lower £3.74 amount) is as follows:

Compared to REBOX1, the value of this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is somewhat weak in terms of host node single-core Passmark, disk type is reasonable and the monthly bandwidth is clearly a bummer at 1TB monthly.

BUT, this HostDoc Black Friday prescription offers crazy value in terms of number of vCPUs, RAM and disk size, with a blazing 10 Gbps port speed (a rare offering for lowend boxes).

The overall LEBRE score of 194 suggests that this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is of exceptional value compared to the reference REBOX1. HostDoc has outdone itself, beating its own previous Dallas offer (which already trounced our reference REBOX1 by a large margin). The main downside is the 1TB bandwidth but everything else more than makes up for this. This box will perform like a dedicated for just a fraction of the price of low end dedicated servers.

TL;DR Likely to offer performance rivaling low end dedicated servers at a fraction of the price. Especially recommended for those who need computing power and ultra-fast bandwidth.

If you are afraid of missing the HostDoc Black Friday 2019 Dallas Dual Compute, buy your box immediately and support HostDoc, who is on The Whitelist.

Special note: if you are wiiling to go beyond the $7 limit that we set on LEBRE, HostDoc has what could the ultimate value high performing VPS offer (8 vCPU, 12GB RAM, 10TB bandwidth) this Black Friday for just £8.33 per month (annual payment). Check it out here.

HostDoc TX3 Dallas Flash Sale

HostDoc is offering another lowend VPS flash sale with the following specs:

  • Intel Xeon Gold 6128 host node
  • 3 vCPU
  • 4GB RAM
  • 20GB + 50GB Disk
  • NVME + HDD Disk Type
  • 2TB Monthly Bandwidth
  • 10 Gbps Port
  • £4 per month (annual payment; otherwise £4.79 per month)
  • KVM Virtualization
  • Location: Dallas

The results of the LEBRE scoring methodology (using the lower £4 amount) is as follows:

Compared to REBOX1, the value of this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is somewhat weak in terms of host node single-core Passmark and monthly bandwidth. Disk type is reasonable, and it offers excellent value in terms of number of vCPUs, RAM and disk size. The highlight is no doubt the blazing 10 Gbps port speed (a rare offering for lowend boxes) that leaves our REBOX1 in the dust.

The overall LEBRE score of 165 suggests that this HostDoc Dallas sale offering is of exceptional value compared to the reference REBOX1 and should perform similarly well, capable of handling a medium sized website without breaking a sweat. If you want the fastest download speeds, this box is for you. If you need lots of bandwidth, consider HostDoc’s Kansas offer instead.

TL;DR A solid all-rounder that easily rivals the reference box. Recommended for those with a need for speed.

If you are afraid of missing the offer, buy your box immediately and support HostDoc, who is on The Whitelist.
