Why Luxvps

What the spec sheet doesn't show

Here's what you actually run on with Luxvps, and where it comes out ahead.

🧩
x86, No ARM Caveats

Intel Xeon and AMD Ryzen run every x86 binary, anti-cheat, and game-server build without ARM compatibility checks. Netcup's ARM G11 line is ARM64.

🗓️
Monthly, Not Locked In

Every Luxvps plan is billed monthly with no minimum term and no setup fee. Several discounted Netcup plans carry a 12-month minimum term.

📦
Free 4x Daily Backups

4 automatic snapshots per day with one-click restore, included free on every plan, with no add-on to buy and nothing to configure.

💾
NVMe RAID-1 Redundancy

All plans run NVMe in RAID-1, so a single drive failure won't take your data down. Netcup states its ARM64 vServers use a RAID but does not publish the level; we publish ours.

📍
Equinix Frankfurt

We run from Equinix FR5/FR7/FR8 in Frankfurt, on one of the world's biggest internet exchanges for low European latency.

FAQ

Luxvps vs Netcup, common questions

Luxvps prices are final. The price you see is the price you pay, with no setup fee and no required add-ons. Across comparable plans Luxvps comes out ahead: every plan is x86 KVM, billed monthly with no lock-in and no setup fee, and includes free 4x daily backups, NVMe RAID-1, and 3.2 Tbit/s Premium DDoS Protection. Netcup's ARM G11 line is ARM64 and currently sold out, several Netcup plans require a 12-month minimum term for the advertised price, and Netcup's prices are displayed incl. 19% VAT.
Netcup's ARM G11 line uses ARM64 (Ampere Altra Max) processors, a separate product line from its x86 vServers, which are power-efficient but can require ARM-compatible software and may not run x86-only binaries, anti-cheat, or some game-server software. Luxvps uses x86-64 hardware, Intel Xeon Gold and AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, so everything that runs on a standard PC server runs without compatibility caveats. For game servers in particular, the Ryzen line's high single-core clock speed is a real advantage.
No. Every Luxvps plan is billed monthly with no minimum term and no setup fee, and is covered by a 48-hour money-back guarantee. Some Netcup VPS plans can be ordered without a minimum term, but several of the larger/discounted plans carry a 12-month minimum term for the advertised price.
Luxvps operates exclusively from Equinix FR5, FR7, and FR8 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, Tier III certified, with redundant N+1 power and 24/7 on-site security.
