Self-Managed VPS · $15.99/mo (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 75 GB NVMe SSD)
DreamHost Stack 4 at $15.99/mo is significantly overpriced compared to stronger-spec alternatives. Contabo, Hetzner, and Hostinger all offer 4GB+ RAM with 2+ vCPU for $5-6.49/mo intro pricing, though renewal traps are industry-wide. OVHcloud VPS-1 matches your RAM/vCPU at $4.54/mo with daily backups included.
8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB SSD, unlimited traffic for $5.94/mo - nearly 3x the specs at 37% of DreamHost's price.
Caveat: Quoted price requires 24-month prepaid contract; 1-month/12-month terms cost significantly more per month, and fair-usage policy can throttle sustained high bandwidth.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB SSD, 20TB transfer for $6.49/mo - matches your core specs at 59% savings.
Caveat: Recent price increases on CPX/CCX lines (2.4-2.75x); traffic overage charges apply outside 20TB EU pool; VAT excluded from listed price.
4GB RAM, 1 vCPU, 50GB NVMe, 4TB transfer, AMD EPYC for $6.49/mo intro - strong value with NVMe storage.
Caveat: Renewal jumps to $11.99/mo (85% increase); requires 12/24/48-month prepay to get this rate; monthly billing is 2-3x higher.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB NVMe, daily backups, unlimited traffic for $4.54/mo - lowest price with matching specs and backup included.
Caveat: IPv4 addresses billed separately; Windows license adds $0.039/vCore/hour; APAC egress loses free status after mid-2026.
2GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80GB NVMe, unlimited traffic (1 Gbit/s) for $4.33/mo - cheapest option with good storage.
Caveat: Intro pricing is 3-month or 1-year promo on 1-year contract; renewal is 2-6x higher; outbound data beyond 2TB pooled is metered at $0.036/GB.
