CPU performance

PassMark CPU Mark for each server (two CPUs per node). Higher is better.

Halifax · 2× Xeon Gold 633060,311

Single-thread rating, per core

Montreal · EPYC 74132,400
Halifax · Xeon Gold 63301,926

What it means: Montreal is faster per core, which matters most for heavy modpacks, ARK, Rust, Windows and databases. Halifax has more cores per node at a lower price, so it’s great value for most game servers, websites and homelabs. Source: PassMark, October 2026. Multi-thread scores are for two CPUs per node: 2× EPYC 7413 and 2× Xeon Gold 6330. Single-thread scores are per core (one-CPU comparison).

Test your connection

Measure latency from your browser, or ping and download a test file from your own server.

Halifax — ping lg.hfx1.sableservers.com curl -O https://lg.hfx1.sableservers.com/100MB.bin
Montreal — ping lg.yul1.sableservers.com curl -O https://lg.yul1.sableservers.com/100MB.bin

Browser results are HTTPS round trips, usually a little higher than a game or SSH ping. For exact numbers, ping or download from your own server.
