MVPS Netherlands High Performance NVMe SSD Cheap VPS Test and Review
We recently reviewed the affordable MVPS server located in Flevoland, Netherlands. This server boasts a speedy Intel Xeon Gold processor, with a setup that includes 2 CPU cores, 4 GB of memory, 50 GB of ultra-fast NVMe SSD space, a network speed of 200 Mbps, and allows for 5 TB of monthly data traffic. It also comes with one IPv4 and one IPv6 address.
We put the server through its paces with a few tests. For the basics, we used the common benchmarking tools. To see how the server talks to the rest of the world, we checked its network performance from multiple locations and measured the lag time with a ping test.
For those curious about streaming and browsing different media content from this server, we tested which regional streaming services you can access. We also looked at how the server interacts with CloudFlare’s network to gauge the browsing quality. Finally, we used popular tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix to see how quickly web pages load and run.

Conclusion
The server ran through a gamut of tests for the nitty-gritty of performance. Initial speed bumps appeared during the storage speed tests, where it clocked an average of 10.3 MB/s. Network performance was tested globally, showing over 140 Mbps for uploads and downloads across several countries, although with high latency in some regions such as China and Singapore.
Interestingly, the server stumbled in China, with significantly slower speeds and higher latency. The UnixBench score provided a peek into the server’s CPU capabilities, with solid results demonstrating its ability to handle computational tasks efficiently. But we hit a snag with the Geekbench test, which failed to run.
In summary, this VPS from MVPS seems reliable, with generally strong network performance, decent storage speed, and fair CPU capability. It’s a cost-effective choice for those needing modest resources and regional streaming within Europe. However, some limitations were noted in international connectivity and a few global streaming services, pointing to a more geo-restricted media service availability.
