Vultr Israel Tel Aviv General Purpose Cloud Dedicated Server Test and Review
Let’s test the Vultr Israel Tel Aviv General Purpose Cloud Dedicated Server. It’s a powerful machine, fueled by an AMD EPYC-Rome Processor, and comes with 4 CPU cores, 16 GB of RAM, 80 GB of super-fast NVMe SSD storage, a 10 Gbps internet connection, 6 TB of data transfer, and both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Our review covers many tests to see what this server can do. We’re looking at its raw performance with tests like the Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark. We’ll check how it connects to different locations using the Global Node Test and measure how quickly it responds with the Global Ping Test.
We’re doing The Media Unlock Test for those interested in media to see what content it can access. We’re also testing connection quality with the CloudFlare Internet Test and seeing how well web pages perform with tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.
