Free tier	Six dedicated machines under USD 100, each on a 1 Gbps unmetered port with full root, a dedicated IP and DDoS protection: an Intel Xeon E3-1230 v2 at 4 cores / 8 threads with 16 GB DDR3 and a 1 TB HDD in Los Angeles at USD 24.95 a month recurring; an Intel Xeon L3426 at 4 cores / 8 threads with 16 GB and 2 x 2 TB in Paris at USD 25.72; an i7-4790K at 4 cores / 8 threads with 32 GB and 2 x 1 TB in Dusseldorf at USD 39.95; an E3-1245 v2 with 32 GB DDR4 and 2 x 480 GB SSD in Montreal at USD 54.99; and a Xeon D-1521 with 16 GB, a 512 GB NVMe and 4 x 4 TB in Montreal. The vendor states the recurring price does not jump after the first month. unit GiB; metered on wall-clock; kind not stated

Composes with	A Paris machine at USD 25.72 with a 1 Gbps unmetered port and 4 TB of disk is the cheapest European dedicated entry found, and it pairs with the OVH or Hetzner object storage that charges per byte rather than per port.
Reliability	no reliability event recorded
Notes	New record: no hostnoc file exists in dossier/compute. This is the lowest European entry price found in the wave and it is European rather than American, which matters for latency to sources in the EU. The CPU of the entry machine is a 2012 Ivy Bridge part, so per-thread throughput is about a third of a current Ryzen, which is the comparison brief asks for and the reason the OVH SYS-1 at EUR 29.99 is a better compute buy at a similar price.
