Frequently Asked Questions
Which VPS should I pick for a game server?
For modern games like Minecraft, Rust or FiveM, pick the Performance VPS in Frankfurt: its Ryzen 7950X3D reaches 5.7 GHz, which is what game servers care about most. For very large communities or multiple servers on one machine, the Extreme Performance VPS gives you more headroom, enterprise NVMe and up to 10 Gbps of bandwidth. Older, lightweight games such as Counter-Strike 1.6 run fine on the Budget VPS.
Which VPS should I pick for a website or app?
The Budget VPS is made for general-purpose workloads: websites, web apps, bots and development machines. It uses an Intel Xeon E5-2690v4, which offers plenty of capacity for these tasks at the lowest price. If your application is CPU-bound or serves heavy traffic, step up to Performance or Extreme Performance.
Can I upgrade to a different VPS type later?
You can upgrade resources within your plan range at any time from the billing area. Moving between VPS types (for example Budget to Extreme Performance) is handled by our support team, who can migrate your data on request.
Is DDoS protection included on all VPS plans?
Yes. Every VPS, regardless of tier, is delivered through GCore's always-on protected network with more than 200 Tbps of filtering capacity, and VPS customers get access to our in-house firewall dashboard with L4/L7 filtering.
