Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.40 GHz (6 Cores)
Six cores give the server more room for simultaneous application, database and background work than the four core E3 options.
Dedicated Servers · $119.95/month
Best for: Several moderate services, a busier web and database stack, or a workload that needs six cores and a larger network transfer allowance.
Why choose this tier
Not ideal for: Large memory resident datasets, heavily parallel jobs or a first website with no demonstrated need for server level control.
Upgrade when: Move to a 32GB tier when memory is the constraint, or to a higher core server when queued work consistently waits for processor time.
Every dedicated servers option
Every current plan has its own detail page. Move between them without losing your place in the decision.
What the limits mean
Numbers are useful when you can connect them to the work they make possible.
Six cores give the server more room for simultaneous application, database and background work than the four core E3 options.
The memory allocation is a practical middle ground for a measured stack, but it should include headroom for the operating system and peaks.
The two SSDs are smaller than several higher tiers, making stored data requirements an important part of this decision.
The higher transfer allowance fits workloads that move more data even when their memory requirements remain moderate.
Control and management: Server software and management remain configuration decisions; confirm the available choices before completing an order.
The buying tradeoff
This tier adds cores and transfer over the E3 line, while retaining 16GB of memory and smaller SSDs than higher catalog options.
