System Benchmarks Index Score 10561.7## Conclusion
If you need fast CPU cores, you should most definitely consider prepaid-hoster.de. I have been using them for about 2 years now and can vouch for good service, great uptime and nice customer support.
However, if what you need is more SSD or more RAM, consider netcups' root servers. I have got to say that SSD storage costs quite a bit on prepaid-hoster.de, ranging somewhere from 50ct-€2 a month for 50gb of increased storage space.
Overall, for being insanely niche, prepaid-hoster.de VMs packs quite the punch with their P-Series EPYC cores. Much better than I thought!
