Virtual Instances · $1983.41/mo (384 GB RAM, 48 vCPU)
Scaleway's MEMORY3-X48C-384G at $1983.41/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior configurations at 50-75% lower cost, with better bandwidth allowances and fewer hidden gotchas. The best value lies with Contabo's dedicated server or Hetzner's CCX63 cloud instance.
Delivers 64 vCPU (vs 48), 192GB RAM, 2TB NVMe, and unlimited traffic for under $760/mo on a 24-month contract, beating Scaleway by nearly $1230/mo.
Caveat: Quoted price requires 24-month prepay; shorter terms cost more per month, and fair-usage policy may throttle sustained high-bandwidth abuse.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contabo | Dedicated Servers · AMD Turin 64 Cores | $755.03/mo | 192 GB RAM, 64 vCPU, 2048 GB NVMe (2x1TB) | Visit |
| OVHcloud | Public Cloud Compute Instances · r3-256 | $912.5/mo | 256 GB RAM, 32 vCPU, 400 GB NVMe | Visit |
| Hosting.com (formerly A2 Hosting) | VPS Hosting (Managed cPanel) · Managed cPanel 256GB | $916.25/mo |
Matches Scaleway's 48 vCPU and 192GB RAM (expandable), adds 20TB included transfer, and costs under $1007/mo, saving nearly $1000/mo.
Caveat: Prices exclude VAT; CCX line saw 2.1-2.73x price increases in June 2026, so future hikes are a risk; traffic overages billed per GB outside EU regions.
Offers 32 vCPU, 256GB RAM, 400GB NVMe, and 99.99% SLA for $912.50/mo, undercutting Scaleway by over $1070 with better reliability.
Caveat: IPv4 addresses billed separately; APAC outbound traffic loses free-egress status after mid-2026; Windows license surcharge applies if needed.
Provides 56 vCPU, 256GB RAM, 5TB SSD, 11TB transfer, and 99.99% SLA; only $320 more than Scaleway but with significantly better specs and reliability.
Caveat: Backup service is a separate add-on (roughly 20-25% of instance cost); outbound bandwidth overages charged at $0.005/GB after allowance exhausted.
Delivers 24 vCPU, 192GB RAM, 600GB NVMe, 9TB transfer, and 99.99% SLA for just over $1000/mo, saving nearly $1000 vs Scaleway.
Caveat: Only 24 vCPU vs Scaleway's 48; bandwidth overages at $0.01/GB; lower compute density may not suit all workloads.
