What’s New?

Enterprise-Grade R640 Hardware

Our newly deployed Dell PowerEdge R640 nodes deliver a significant leap in real-world performance:

  • Dual Intel Xeon Gold 6154 CPUs
    Exceptional single-core performance for fast game logic, physics, and script execution.

  • 128GB ECC DDR4 Memory
    High stability under load, with an upgrade path to 256GB for even smoother performance.

  • Intel P4510 NVMe Enterprise SSDs
    Ultra-low latency storage ensures faster map loading, quicker restarts, and more responsive gameplay.

These upgrades benefit every game we host, including shooters, racing titles, survival games, modded servers, sandbox environments, and simulation titles.


What This Means for You

Whether you’re running a small server for friends or a large public community, you can expect:

  • Faster load times
  • Improved in-game smoothness
  • Better stability during high activity
  • Reduced lag and micro-stutters
  • Greater responsiveness to real-time events
  • Lower latency for players across North America

These improvements apply to all games in your catalog—shooters, survival titles, racing sims, multiplayer sandboxes, and more.


Technical Details

CPU: Intel Xeon Gold 6154

A high-frequency enterprise processor optimized for game logic, simulations, AI routines, and real-time responsiveness.

Memory: 128GB DDR4 ECC

Error-correcting memory ensures long-term stability for game servers that run continuously.

Storage: Intel P4510 NVMe

  • Low latency
  • High throughput
  • Power-loss protection
  • Excellent for games that rely heavily on world files, assets, or frequent read/write operations.

Network

Multi-uplink, high-bandwidth routing with strong DDoS mitigation and low-latency paths to major US regions.


Performance Improvements

Across all hosted games, you can expect:

Faster Startup Times

Servers boot and restart significantly faster due to NVMe performance and improved CPU responsiveness.

Improved Real-Time Performance

High-frequency cores reduce stutters, lag spikes, and frame-time inconsistencies for players.

Better Stability

ECC memory and enterprise storage help maintain smooth performance during extended uptime.

Enhanced Asset Loading

Games with large maps, mods, or frequent file access benefit substantially from NVMe throughput.

Smoother Player Experience

More consistent performance under player load, high activity, or fast-paced gameplay.


Deployment Strategy

Phase 1 — R640 Integration

New servers are already being deployed on R640 nodes for optimal performance.

Phase 2 — Customer Migrations

Existing servers will be migrated where performance gains are most impactful.

Phase 3 — Future Expansion

Additional R640 nodes will be added to scale capacity while maintaining high performance standards.


What’s Next?

We’re preparing several improvements throughout 2026:

  • Expansion of high-performance hardware
  • Additional North American regions
  • Enhanced monitoring and analytics
  • Faster provisioning times
  • New premium performance-tier plans

Pricing Impact

There is no price increase associated with this upgrade.

All customers benefit from this rollout automatically at their current plan price.


Reliability & Uptime

Our R640 platform includes:

  • ECC RAM for maximum long-term stability
  • NVMe storage with power-loss protection
  • Redundant power and cooling
  • Multi-uplink network redundancy
  • Strong DDoS protection
  • 99.9% uptime target

Get the Most Out of Your Server

To take full advantage of the improved performance:

  1. Keep your server updated to the latest version
  2. Use optimized configurations for your specific game
  3. Monitor resource usage
  4. Restart periodically for the best experience
  5. Contact support for optimization recommendations
