For a North American offer it is amazing: does anyone know the server location? Their site says Canada in several places, but doesn't say where the DC is. Anyone have a test IP?
If he dropped the price by a dollar probably the score might hit near 200. I think you are in Asia and you can consider this if you need a powerful VPS with good speeds to Asia. See the bench.sh posted by @dahartigan

Tnx, I saw it. UltraVPS and HostHactch is winner now.
EUR 30,00 annual after using code BF2019-UK-KVM-SSD equivalent to two-fiddy / mth
UK network prem
Requested for AES flag and it got approved faster than I could use the toilet
The BF loads are dying down so here's a better one, note I have been eyeing this prem VPS since beginning of the year. It's unforgettable and even more so with the price now.
$50 if paid annual. I think there was an additional 10 percent discount code- did not use it (I know!) but if applicable, at 44.5 USD/year should be a sweet deal
Yea this AlphaVPS offer probably beats SmartHost in value and possibly similar to PHP-Friends, just that it offers more vCPUs instead of PHP-Friends' much larger disk storage. I wonder if we can find out if it is still available.

@cybertech - the virmach flash sales are a
pretty sweet deal and surprisingly stable systems for modest performance requirements.
Maybe give them a week or two to settle down and recover from the BF madness but do check in with them if you need aes or other flags enabled
Also be sure to do the needful to limit your CPU use if you plan to push it for more than a few minutes
As per their AUP:
High CPU: Customer’s Service cannot burst to 95-100% usage for more than five (5) minutes and cannot average higher than 50% usage within any two (2) hour period. Packages advertised to include dedicated CPU, Services with the high CPU option, and any customized Service plans that include high CPU option may burst to 100% at all times.
High Load: Customer’s Service cannot have a 15-minute load average higher than the number of full logical cores assigned and cannot have a 1-day load average higher than 70% of the number of full logical cores assigned.
That 5 minute limit is pretty constrictive and IME with the Virmach deals of the past few BF's, the cores are relatively slow. But they are still excellent deals. I haven't bought any this year but resisted temptation for a few, and missed a few that I'd have jumped on.

this is fine if you buy it to keep it idle, but its very bad if you plan to put it in production
anyway, being from europe, i dont get the excitement about virmach, maybe its just me, they are on a shitty network, the prices are small for sure, now i see this cpu stuff, i wouldnt touch them

BF/CM - Buyer Beware. Conduct your own due diligence on the sustainability of the deals presented here as well as the provider's track record.
For a storage offer, this is excellent. Can't fight @cociu though. He still wins on storage.

Bought HostHatch 2GB NVMe right after reading your reviews. My wallet is empty atm, do NOT add any new reviews til BF/CM end
For a North American offer it is amazing: does anyone know the server location? Their site says Canada in several places, but doesn't say where the DC is. Anyone have a test IP?
Did @cociu posted any storage yet?
Free NAT KVM | Free NAT LXC | Bobr
He had a bunch of posts early on LET's Nekki thread.
Guess its gone, don't see it on the LET page. I can see
but that's not 10TB bandwidth.
10 TB bandwidth is available upon request:

@poisson Could you please also review Smarthost deal? It's under 7$
This same offer was available earlier and I reviewed it: https://lowendboxes.review/smarthost-kvm-nvme-ssd-budget-vps-flash-sale/

got my php-friends too
@poisson note that the price is 4,16 EUR/month if you're outside EU or a company that pays VAT
Yes, I noted that as the 6 monthly figure they provided and calculated the value based on that. Thanks for watching my back so I don't make mistakes!
