Vultr United Kingdom Manchester General Purpose Cloud Dedicated Server Test and Review

We recently tested the Vultr UK Manchester General Purpose Cloud Dedicated Server (Plan: 50 GB NVMe). It runs on an AMD EPYC-Rome Processor with 2 CPU cores, 8 GB RAM, 50 GB NVMe SSD storage, a 5 Gbps internet port, and 5 TB of traffic, and includes both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address.

Our review covers several tests: Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark for performance, Global Node Test for network speeds across locations, and Global Ping Test for latency. We also check media access with The Media Unlock Test, connection quality with the CloudFlare Internet Test, and web performance using PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.
