How this suggestion works
This is a sizing guide, not a saved trial configuration. Performance depends on the game, mods, settings, hardware, and workload. Trial hardware can differ from paid hardware. The trial does not become a paid plan. After 48 hours, it is suspended; active trial data is deleted seven calendar days later.

Before you order
Questions before you choose a server?
Which hosting type should I choose?
Choose a managed game server if you want VYKIX to maintain the operating system. Choose Game VPS for root access or custom software. Choose bare metal for an entire physical machine or several servers.
What does a server cost?
Pricing depends on the game, hosting type, billing cycle, region, and selected hardware. Managed game servers use one server price instead of per-slot billing; Game VPS and bare-metal prices depend on the resources or machine you choose. Your order total, including applicable taxes and fees, is shown before payment.
Which processors are available?
Available processors span Intel i5-12600K to Core Ultra 9 285K and AMD Ryzen 7800X3D, 7900X, and 9800X3D options. Hardware varies by product and location. Game-server and bare-metal plans name the processor; Game VPS plans specify vCPU, memory, and NVMe.
Does VYKIX charge per player slot?
Managed game servers use one server price instead of charging for each player slot. Game VPS pricing depends on allocated resources; bare-metal pricing depends on the machine. How many players a server actually holds is a separate question — it comes down to the workload and the build you pick.
Which trials can I start from this page?
DayZ and Rust offer free 48-hour trials. A valid card is required for fraud verification, but no payment is taken and the trial does not convert automatically. Trial and paid hardware can differ. After 48 hours the trial is suspended; its active data is deleted seven calendar days later.
