best local VPS solution

@Hamster

Wanted to provide an update - our order with SuperMicro is being procured and should be sent via air shipment within the next week and hopefully arrive in SA a few days after that - honest cant wait for it to arrive and the sooner the better!

After receiving the new hardware we'll need a few days to get the system ready and at this point we can offer free trials to all the MYBB folk as we had done with the DirectAdmin Beta test that we ran.

I'll keep you updated

Anywhere I can get any information on pricing and specs as an example?
 
Thanks for your interest, we haven’t published pricing as yet but as soon as we do I’ll update this thread
Please do! Am extremely keen to test and have a number of servers I need to test and throw at it :)
 
Just a quick update on our new AMD EPYC solution

I've just spoken to our supplier and our shipment has been dispatched via the UK and should arrive in the country over the coarse of the weekend.

Hoping to have our new kit in our hands towards the middle of next week.

Doesn't look bad at all but I'm going, to be honest.

From what I can tell the bandwidth limits are on the thin and starving side. Even the R699pm package only has 100GB of bandwidth. Now if I was going to use it for anything other than basic website hosting that bandwidth would be gone in a few days.

Thank you for the honest feedback. Those are the base prices but we can always add on additional bandwidth if needed ;)
