Dallas is joining Salt Lake City as our second location in the United States. We're starting with dedicated servers at the DFW1 data centre, and the first machines are open for pre-order today, from $79.95 a month.
Why Dallas
Dallas sits close to the middle of the country and is one of the busiest network hubs in North America. That makes it a strong home for anything with an audience spread across the US: Texas and the South, the Midwest, and the East Coast are all within easy reach. If Salt Lake City has felt a little far west for your players or visitors, Dallas is the location to look at.
The launch lineup
We've started with a range that covers everything from a first dedicated box to a serious storage machine:
- Intel Xeon E5-1650 v4: 6 cores up to 4.0 GHz, 64 GB RAM, with a 480 GB or 1.86 TB SSD. From $79.95/mo.
- Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3: 12 cores, 32 GB RAM and a 1 TB SSD for $79.95/mo.
- Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4: 14 cores, 128 GB RAM and a 1 TB SSD for $89.95/mo. A lot of memory for the money.
- Dual Xeon E5-2620 v4: 16 cores and 128 GB RAM, with a 900 GB or 1 TB SSD. From $89.95/mo.
- Dual Xeon E5-2650 v4: 24 cores, 128 GB RAM and a 1.75 TB SSD for $99.95/mo.
- AMD Ryzen 9 7950X: 16 cores up to 5.7 GHz, 128 GB DDR5 and 2 TB NVMe for $174.95/mo.
- Dual Xeon Gold 6142: 32 cores, 256 GB RAM and 15.36 TB of NVMe across two drives for $239.95/mo.
Every server comes with full root access, IPMI/KVM remote management and always-on DDoS protection, the same as in Salt Lake City. You can see the full specs, and filter by location, processor and budget, on our dedicated servers page.
How pre-orders work
- Pick a Dallas server on the dedicated servers page and choose Pre-order.
- Complete your order in the control panel, just like any other product.
- We reserve the machine for you and set it up as part of the Dallas launch.
- You get your login details and IPMI access as soon as your server is ready.
Each server shows how many units are on the way, for example "9 incoming", so you can see what's left. Quantities are limited, and once a configuration is gone it shows as sold out until more stock arrives.
What about Salt Lake City and Newcastle?
Nothing changes there. Salt Lake City and Newcastle carry on running web hosting, VPS, game servers and email as they do today. Dallas launches with dedicated servers only. You can see all three locations on our network page.
If you're not sure which machine suits your project, ask us on live chat or Discord. A real person will help you pick, with no sales pressure.
