Looking for best price/performance host

Looking for best price/performance host, I prefer if I'm not restricted to a panel (can access the OS). Was previously looking at netcup root servers, but not sure if that's going to be able to handle it. Was previously using contabo and tried a 25 player bot test (obviously didn't perform well) Anarchy server on 1.21.1, minimal plugins besides anticheat, and looking to be able to handle around 40 - 60 players peak. Lag machines and hacks aren't allowed so shouldn't have to take that into account too much (have a plugin that helps me ban players who use lag machines). Not sure if this matters but also I'm using "LinearRegionFileFormatTools"

Also really not trying to spend more than $35 or so, of course this is super restrictive and maybe not even possible but just seeing my options first, can of course pay more if I have to.

Hetzner has amazing performance and prices. Check out their server auctions and dedicated sections, they only offer dedi locations in Germany and Finald, but the ping is consistent. So don't think of it as lag, I currently have a German dedi and I get 170 constant ping i have a i5-12500 with 64g ram and x2 512gb ssd's in raid1. but you can find other CPUs that are good, im currently paying $30 for my server.

i know man hetzner is definitely the best option and i can even afford a dedi server with them but i really am offput by the locations although i AM open to it if it becomes the last option

Nuremberg: nbg.icmp.hetzner.com Falkenstein: fsn.icmp.hetzner.com Finland: hel.icmp.hetzner.com ping these in command promt
ping nbg.icmp.hetzner.com
ping nbg.icmp.hetzner.com
the MS you receive back will be your MS to the server location you are pinging

i've been checking benchmarks of each vps to help me find the best options and what i've come to is a lot of them just simply aren't good (at least for minecraft servers, good multicore but bad single core) so my next option is maybe it is CHEAPER to run folia on something like a epyc, so i'm not restricted by single core

i wouldnt choose an EPYC they dont have good single core performance, thats what i was using before i switched to my dedi that CPU just cant handle mc you want ideally 3.5k+ single core performance ratings my cpu is 4.2 i believe 3.6k * unless u go with a newer EPYC like a 9000 series those arent bad

well like i said though if i run folia i get multicore not so restricted on cpu type due to needing high single core
