Hourly billed VDS/Dedi without 20$ pre-paid upfront?
Do you guys know any (cheap of course) hourly billed VDS/Dedi with smallish pre-paid up front?
I just need something that I can hammer down 100% CPU for like 3 hours on 16 cores modern CPU.
I am pre-generating OSM map tiles and it takes like 3h on my home Ryzen 5900X and last few times I did like that... but it's kinda hot here at the moment and I am not looking into CPU-cooking-myself.
Hourly is a must - if that is gonna cost me like 1$ I don't really looking into putting 20$ up-front - I pre-generate tiles like once a 3 months - this would last time uhmm 5 years.
virtua.cloud looks nice, but they wanted 20€ up-front
I registered somewhere else and they wanted 50$ up-front.
So - if anyone is using any hourly thing with dedicated cores can you check what is the minimal up-front pre-paid needed?
Or idk, you know some crazy providers giving a nice dedi for 24 hours for 1$ - this will work too

GTHost you can rent dedicated servers from 1-10 days periods
Would a vultr CPU Optimized instance work for you ?
16 vCPU, 32 GB, 8.00 TB, 300 GB, $0.476 /hr
I have a bit of credit there so I can spring for the $2
I am currently traveling in mostly remote areas until sometime in April 2024. Consequently DM's sent to me will go unanswered during this time.

How powerful does it need to be? Have some idle resources you could use for a day. I have to charge $0.01 just so your signature gets updated
NVMe VPS | Ryzen 7950X VDS | Dedicated Servers -- Crunchbits.com
Thanks, I will take a look.
Nononono, thanks for the offer, but that sounds like potential issue if like you go offline and it ends with 48h uptime :-D
Plus Vultr would be probably mad.
At least RYZEN 11 7689X4K.
Thanks for the offer, but I would feel bad with taking advantage of this - yours cost for this thing would be shit-ton more than this is worth
Idling is much cheaper than 100% CPU usage plus all the manual admin time to set it up that you could spend on getting the GPU VDS running even more smooth.
playing Starfield I mean.

There are some dedicated servers by the hour at nocix, the deposit minimum appears to be $10 USD.

You could try https://vast.ai, sometimes they have node that have a good CPU. $5 minimum deposit
https://www.cherryservers.com/pricing/dedicated-servers seems to have hourly billed dedicated servers. Couldn't find anything about deposit.
Ympker's VPN LTD Comparison, Uptime.is, Ympker's GitHub.
I used to rent Scaleway.
No deposit, credit card is charged after usage at end of month.
Production series, 16-core EPYC 7543 dedicated and 64GB RAM instance costs €0.59/hour.
If I need such resource again, I would use TensorDock because @lentro gave me some free credits and I haven't spent them yet.
Minimum deposit is $5.
CPU-only, 4-core EPYC Milan dedicated and 16GB RAM instance costs $0.172/hour.
Theoretically the platform supports up to 44 cores with proportional pricing, but there's no button in my account.
HostBrr aff best VPS; VirmAche aff worst VPS.
Unable to push-up due to shoulder injury 😣
It seems like Optimized Cloud Compute lineup is dedicated, so i'm pretty sure they're not going to be mad.
I more like mean Vultr will be mad that someone else is running that shit on Franks account and they lost 'potential' sale - I don't really want to throw Frank under the bus and get his account blocked or something for trying to help. TOS most likely says no.

Thanks rest for links I will investigate in the evening

Vultr bare metal is hourly billed, easiest way to handle this kind of small jobs
Doesn't Hetzner have dedicated vCPU plans by the hour too? These use EPYC CPUs
Last time I need a VPS for a day I tried Hetzner, they deemed me a flight risk and wanted passport scan (fuck no) or 20€ up front via PayPal (that is what I am trying to avoid in first place) so Hetzner is out.

Fuck, did ID to Hetzner - I will need another VPS for few days later, so...
But now I damn confused - I said it takes like 3h on my home 5900X [12 cores, 24 threads]?
13 hours for 8 threadscores on EPYC Milan and still running...
I guess I should try the 16 threadscores non-dedicated VPS later despite my better judgement?
Clearly CPU bottleneck - I guess I need moar moar moar cores.

RamNode has VDS starting from $0.075/hr. Dedicated CPU.
As per the docs minimum $3 needs to be paid upfront.
HINT:
Don't be an idiot, read the changelog. There was an update to openstreetmap-carto and you need to semi-manually load indexes to database
Attempting to render without them will result in abysmal performance.
- after running for 15 hours and getting like 30% workload done I've added the indexes and it took ~2h to do everything from scratch.Haven't bought a single service in VirMach Great Ryzen 2022 - 2023 Flash Sale.
