Seriously, it's not that good. Its using Ampere A1s

snowznz.bak•8/6/23, 4:59 AM

But still, fine for most people hosting small servers

its 24 gigs of ram

Larry the PigOP•8/6/23, 5:12 AM

and 4 cores

Core count and ram aren't everything

The cpu is pretty important

Larry the PigOP•8/6/23, 5:59 AM

what im trying to say is that it's better than most $5 paid options

Larry the PigOP•8/6/23, 5:59 AM

whats the catch

Deer Jerky•8/6/23, 5:59 AM

The cpu performance and you don't have the server panel/everything set up tax

snowznz.bak•8/6/23, 6:06 AM

snowznz.bak•8/6/23, 6:06 AM

snowznz.bak•8/6/23, 6:06 AM
