Hosting provider FirstDEDIC has rolled out a month-long promotion: from September 29 to October 27, dedicated servers come with a 30% discount. The deal covers a range of popular configurations — from Ryzen to Xeon — so customers can upgrade without breaking into a cold sweat over specs.
AMD vs. Intel — No Soap Opera Here
On the AMD side, the lineup includes Ryzen 7 9700X, Ryzen 9 9950X3D, Ryzen 9 3900X, and Ryzen 9 7950X. Intel counters with Core i9-10900K, the Xeon E5 series (2620v4, 2630v4, 2640v4), plus dual setups like 2xXeon E5-2630v3 and 2xXeon Scalable Silver 4514Y/4214.
Each server comes with a dedicated IPv4 address and unlimited traffic at 100 Mbps. No fine print, no footnotes — it’s all part of the package.
The Numbers Actually Add Up
The discount applies regardless of the rental period — 1, 3, 6, or 12 months. Even better, it stacks with long-term pricing, giving finance teams plenty of room for calculator gymnastics.
There’s just one catch: processor availability is limited. And while some may still be debating AMD versus Intel, others might recall the age-old truth — sometimes decisiveness beats raw performance.
