Dedicated Server Prices: What Each Tier Buys You

01 Oct 2026 · Mario Marin

Our whole dedicated line on one page: seven configurations from €209 to €1,519 a month, what the price includes, what is an option at checkout, and how to read the ladder.

Dedicated server pricing is usually hard to read. One provider quotes a bare chassis and charges for the port later, another bundles everything and hides the hardware generation, and a third lists a price that only exists on a twelve month contract. This post puts our whole dedicated line on one page: what each tier costs per month, what is inside the box, what is included and what is an option you choose at checkout.

Every figure below is the monthly price shown on our dedicated server page and in the order form on the day this was written. Prices are in euro, before VAT.

The short version

  • Seven configurations, from €209 a month for a dual Xeon with 32 threads and 128 GB of memory to €1,519 a month for a dual AMD EPYC with 512 threads and 1 TB of memory.
  • The price includes a 1 Gbps guaranteed port with unmetered traffic. Faster ports are a checkout option.
  • No setup fee on any configuration, and the same price in all 11 countries.
  • Intel Xeon servers are delivered in about 45 minutes. AMD EPYC servers have a delivery estimate of 14 days.

The full price ladder

The table shows the monthly price at the default 1 Gbps port and with a 10 Gbps port, which is the most common upgrade we see on media and backup workloads.

Dual EPYC 9754256 / 5121 TB DDR52 × 1 TB NVMe€1,519€2,239

There is also a Xeon Gold 6148 build sold only with high bandwidth ports from 25 Gbps upwards. It is aimed at a very specific buyer, so it is left out of the comparison here.

What the monthly price includes

The number in the table is the server you can actually run, not a teaser that needs three add ons before it boots:

  • The whole machine. Chassis, processors, memory, disks and network card belong to one customer. Nothing is shared and nothing is oversold.
  • A guaranteed 1 Gbps port with unmetered traffic. There is no monthly transfer quota and no overage bill. The port speed you pay for is the speed you get.
  • One usable IPv4 address. Enough for a single web stack or a VPN endpoint.
  • DDoS protection that runs upstream of the server with nothing to switch on.
  • Full root and your choice of operating system. Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky, AlmaLinux, CentOS Stream, Fedora, openSUSE, Arch, Oracle Linux, FreeBSD, Proxmox VE, and Windows Server 2022 or 2025.

What costs extra, and when you need it

Faster ports

The Xeon E5 machines take ports from 1 to 20 Gbps. The EPYC 9254 and 9554 go up to 50 Gbps, and the EPYC 9754 up to 200 Gbps. Each step is still unmetered, so the port price is the whole network bill for the month. If you push video, mirrors or backups to many people, price the port first and the processor second.

More addresses

Subnets of /29, /28 and /27 are add ons at checkout. You need them when you run several services that each want their own public address, or when you turn the box into a virtualisation host with public facing guests. You can also bring your own /24, or your own ASN with a /24 for a BGP session with us, as order options.

More storage

The Xeon builds start with one 240 GB SSD and take up to six SSDs. The EPYC builds start with two 1 TB NVMe drives and take up to 24 NVMe drives. Start small if you are unsure, since storage choices are made at checkout for each order.

Monthly, quarterly or yearly

Dedicated servers bill monthly, quarterly or yearly. The longer cycles are a convenience for your accounts team rather than a discount, so a year costs twelve times the monthly price. The practical advice is simple: start monthly, and move to a longer cycle only when you want fewer invoices.

There is no hourly dedicated plan. Racking, imaging and testing a physical server makes true hourly metal impractical. If you need capacity for a few hours, a KVM VPS from €0.0056 an hour does that job, and it can carry a workload while your dedicated box is being delivered.

Where the servers are

Dedicated servers can be deployed in Austria, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Spain and the United States. The price does not change with the country, so choose the location closest to your users, or the one your data protection rules require. Ten of the eleven are inside the EU.

How to read the ladder

A few patterns help when you compare the rows:

  • Cheapest thread: the Dual EPYC 9754 works out at about €2.97 per thread per month, and the Dual Xeon E5 2699 v4 at about €3.40. If your workload scales across many cores, these two are the value picks.
  • Cheapest memory: the Dual Xeon E5 2699 v4 gives 256 GB for €299, which is about €1.17 per GB. Large caches and in memory databases land here.
  • Fastest per core: the EPYC 9254 runs at a 2.9 GHz base clock on a modern core design with DDR5. Single threaded game servers and latency sensitive databases favour it over the older Xeons.
  • Fastest to start: any Xeon row, because it arrives in about 45 minutes rather than two weeks.

If you are still deciding whether you need a whole machine at all, our guide to bare metal versus VPS walks through the trade offs.

How Noded Can Help

Pick a row, choose the country and the port, and the total you see in the order form is the total you pay each month. If you are unsure which tier fits, open a ticket with a short description of the workload, the traffic you expect and where your users are. We will tell you which configuration we would pick ourselves, and if a smaller VPS would do the job just as well, we will say that too.

FAQ

What is the cheapest dedicated server you sell?

The Dual Xeon E5 2630 v3 at €209 a month, with 16 cores, 32 threads, 128 GB of DDR4, a 240 GB SSD and a 1 Gbps unmetered port.

Is there a setup fee?

No. None of the dedicated configurations carry a setup fee.

Does the price change between countries?

No. A given configuration costs the same in all 11 countries.

Is traffic really unmetered?

Yes. You pay for the port speed, and there is no transfer quota or overage charge on top of it.

How fast can I get a server?

Intel Xeon servers are delivered in about 45 minutes. AMD EPYC servers have a delivery estimate of 14 days.

Can I run Windows Server?

Yes. Windows Server 2022 and 2025 images are available on every dedicated configuration.
