FAQ

Questions about our server hardware

Straight answers about CPUs, storage, network and locations.

Three lines: Intel Xeon E5 v4 (Entry), Intel Xeon Gold (Pro) or AMD Ryzen 9950X/9700X (Performance).

Depending on the offer you pick in the shop, your dedicated server runs on Intel Xeon E5 v4 with SATA SSD and 10 Gbit/s, on Intel Xeon Gold with NVMe or SATA SSD and 10 Gbit/s, or on AMD Ryzen 9950X/9700X with DDR5 and 25 Gbit/s. The shop shows live which configurations are currently available. Compare dedicated servers

Ryzen for maximum single-core speed, Xeon Gold for a balanced enterprise profile.

If your workload depends on clock speed, such as game servers or other latency-sensitive applications, the AMD Ryzen dedicated server is the stronger pick: higher boost clocks, DDR5 and 25 Gbit/s. Intel Xeon Gold is a proven enterprise CPU with an even single- and multi-core profile and a 10 Gbit/s port. Ryzen has fewer cores and less RAM per host than large dual-socket servers, which is the trade-off for its single-core lead.

It depends on the job: EPYC wins on core density, Ryzen on clock speed.

AMD EPYC brings high core counts, ECC memory and PCIe bandwidth, which is why we use the EPYC 7763 for virtualization in part of our VPS fleet. For a single dedicated machine, the choice that matters is clock speed versus balance: Ryzen 9950X/9700X for single-core performance, Intel Xeon Gold for an even enterprise profile.

Powerful server CPUs, with the model depending on the location.

Game server, VPS and TeamSpeak hosts run on powerful server CPUs with enterprise NVMe storage. The exact model varies by location, and the migration of our older blades to the new platform is still under way. Part of the VPS fleet already runs on AMD EPYC 7763. Game server hostingVPS hosting

NVMe or SATA SSD, depending on the offer.

Each dedicated offer lists its storage type, so you see whether you get NVMe or SATA SSD before you order. At FFM/Eygelshoven, our shared host platform also runs on a triple-replicated Ceph NVMe cluster with 2.0 PiB capacity.

25 Gbit/s on every Ryzen configuration, 10 Gbit/s on Xeon Gold.

Every AMD Ryzen dedicated server comes with a 25 Gbit/s port, whether it has SATA or NVMe storage, and Intel Xeon Gold servers get 10 Gbit/s. Our host platform runs dual 100 Gbit/s NICs on 100G switches.

Yes: our own servers and our own office in Eygelshoven (NL), plus our own hardware in Dallas, Ashburn and Los Angeles.

In Eygelshoven, our own servers run in the data center of our partner SkyLink, and we have our own office there. In Dallas, Ashburn and Los Angeles, our own hardware runs in the data center of our partner Psychz Networks. Montreal, London, Singapore and Sydney are partner locations. Certifications belong to the data center operators, not to ZAP-Hosting itself: SkyLink runs Eygelshoven to the Tier III standard, and Psychz is certified to ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II in Los Angeles.

It depends on CPU line, RAM and storage: live prices are in the shop.

The price depends on the configuration you choose. The shop shows every available dedicated server configuration with its current price, so you can compare the Xeon E5, Xeon Gold and Ryzen lines side by side before you order. See live prices in the shop

Yes, PletX with up to 4 Tbit/s scrubbing at no extra cost.

PletX DDoS protection is active automatically at FFM/Eygelshoven and selected US locations, with nothing extra to book. Partner locations come with basic DDoS protection.

24/7 monitoring and a 52 min average incident resolution.

Our infrastructure is monitored around the clock. In Eygelshoven we are on site with our own office; at the other locations, the technicians of our data center partners handle on-site work. You can follow the current state of every location on our public status page. Open the status page

In the ZapX panel, on your dedicated server's Hardware tab.

Right after your order, the Hardware tab in the ZapX panel shows the CPU model, RAM and storage of your dedicated server.
