Conclusion
The VPS delivered a mixed but impressive bag of results. CPU benchmarks via Geekbench 5 clocked a single-core score of 990 and a multi-core score of 797, hinting at solid but not top-tier multi-threaded performance. Memory shone brightly, with read speeds hitting 48,726.36 MB/s and writes at 24,195.01 MB/s. Disk I/O flexed its muscles with 1.5 GB/s read/write for 1MB blocks, though it dipped to 40.8 MB/s write and 28.5 MB/s read with 4K blocks. Network tests showed upload peaks at 1.10 Gbits/sec (Singapore) and downloads up to 878 Mbits/sec, with ping as low as 2.36 ms locally. Streaming unlocked Netflix, Disney+, and more in Malaysia, while IP quality reflected a clean, datacenter-grade IPv4/IPv6 setup with no major red flags.
Analysis and Insights
What stands out is the VPS’s raw compute and memory strength—perfect for tasks like data analytics or virtual machine hosting. The disk I/O tells a nuanced story: it’s a champ with large files but stumbles on small-block operations, much like a sports car stuck in city traffic—powerful yet constrained in certain scenarios. Network performance is a win for nearby regions (think Singapore), but farther afield, speeds vary, suggesting location matters. Streaming capability adds a feather to its cap, ideal for media firms. On the flip side, the modest multi-core score and email port limitations (spotty SMTP support) might irk users needing peak concurrency or mail server reliability.
The AMD EPYC 9654 VPS is a powerhouse for compute-intensive and memory-hungry workloads, making it a compelling pick for enterprises chasing performance on a budget. Its disk and network quirks aren’t dealbreakers but warrant attention—opt for it if your apps lean on big data rather than small, frequent I/O. Streaming support broadens its appeal, though IT admins should test network latency for their regions. For those prioritizing raw power over nitty-gritty optimizations, this VPS delivers bang for the buck—just don’t expect it to ace every niche use case.
