What is a bare metal server used for?
Bare metal servers shine at work that keeps CPU cores, memory and disks fully busy all day. The hardware is not shared with other customers, so performance does not fluctuate by time of day, and you use all the hardware with your own settings. Here are four common uses.
Large databases and search servers
For PostgreSQL, MySQL and search engines that keep lots of data in memory, memory size and disk speed are your response speed. EPYC servers can expand memory to 768GB or more, and two NVMe disks let you keep data and logs apart.
Virtualization and building your own cloud
Install virtualization software directly on the physical server and split it into several virtual servers. Run per-team development servers and per-customer isolated environments inside one server, under rules you set.
Game servers and real-time services
Game servers with many simultaneous players, voice and video call servers and real-time trading systems need high-clock CPUs and a steady network. Ryzen servers are a good fit for work that needs high clock speeds.
Builds, rendering and heavy computation
For core-heavy work such as code builds, video encoding, scientific computing and bulk data processing, EPYC 32-core and 64-core servers are the right fit. Send results out right away with generous monthly transfer.
How is a VPS different from a dedicated server?
A dedicated CPU VPS is a virtual server where the CPU cores are yours alone, while bare metal gives you a whole physical server to yourself. Choose based on the number of cores and amount of memory you need, and whether you need to work with the hardware directly.
Dedicated CPU VPS
A virtual server with vCPUs just for you
Best for
- Steady work in the 2 to 16 vCPU range
- API servers and web services with steady traffic
- Setups with several identical servers in several regions
- When you want to start light at virtual server prices
Bare metal Ryzen
A high-clock 12-core dedicated server
Best for
- Game servers and real-time services
- Work that processes one task at a time, fast
- Mid-sized databases
- When you want a physical server at a reasonable monthly price
Bare metal EPYC
A server CPU with many cores and lots of memory
Best for
- Core-heavy builds and computation
- Databases that use lots of memory
- Building your own cloud with virtualization
- Services that need a 10Gbit/s port
What is a bare metal server?
A bare metal server is a physical server with no virtualization layer shared with other customers beneath the operating system. One customer uses all of the CPU, memory, disks and network card installed in the server. That is why it is also called a dedicated server, and its biggest advantage is using the hardware's performance for your work with nothing lost. That also makes performance easy to predict.
A VPS is a virtual server carved out of a large physical server, so it is quick to create and inexpensive. Bare metal costs more per month since you use a whole machine, but its core count and memory are far larger than a VPS, and performance never changes because of other customers on the same server. The heavier and more sustained the load, the bigger this difference becomes.
With HELPER VPS bare metal servers, you choose your operating system from Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, CentOS Stream and FreeBSD and log in with root access. On top of that, you can build any setup you like, from databases and containers to virtualization software.
Hourly bare metal or a flat monthly rate: which is better?
Hourly bare metal servers are handy for tests that run just a few hours, but if left on all month, the cost is the hourly price times about 730 hours. Dedicated servers are mostly kept on all the time, so comparing monthly totals is the accurate way. The longer you keep it on, the bigger the advantage of a flat monthly rate, and you know in advance what you will pay each month.
HELPER VPS bare metal is a flat monthly rate from the start. Ryzen 12 cores at $86.80 per month, EPYC 24 cores at $133.84, EPYC 32 cores at $268.24 and EPYC 64 cores at $469.84, with memory, disks, port, monthly transfer and IP addresses included in the price for easy budgeting.
The same amount is paid with USDT on each billing date, so you use it as long as you need with no contract term. When you are done, delete the server from the control panel by typing its name and its fees stop. Clean up in line with your billing date to make full use of the time you paid for.
How much does dedicated server hosting cost?
HELPER VPS bare metal servers start at $86.80 per month with an AMD Ryzen 9 7900 12-core CPU, 64GB memory and 1TB NVMe. For EPYC servers with more cores, choose from 24, 32 or 64 cores.
A whole physical server at a flat monthly rate
A server with a 12-core CPU, 64GB memory and 1TB NVMe all to yourself for $86.80 per month. If you need more cores, step up to 24, 32 and 64 cores.
Flat rate with port and transfer included
A 1Gbit/s port and 20TB to 50TB of monthly transfer are included in the price. EPYC 32-core and 64-core servers can also choose a 10Gbit/s port.

Bare metal server FAQ
Answers on bare metal dedicated server pricing, payment and choosing specs
What is a bare metal server?
A bare metal server is a dedicated server where one customer uses an entire physical server not split by virtualization. CPU, memory, disks and network port are not shared with other customers, so performance is steady, and you set everything from the operating system to hardware settings the way you want. With no virtualization layer, the hardware's performance goes straight to your work.
Are bare metal servers billed hourly?
HELPER VPS bare metal servers are a flat monthly rate, paid monthly with USDT. To compare with hourly pricing, divide the monthly price by about 730 hours; for a dedicated server kept on all month, comparing monthly totals is most accurate. For a Ryzen 12-core server, everything is included in $86.80 a month.
How much does a bare metal server cost per month?
AMD Ryzen 12-core servers are $86.80 per month, EPYC 24 cores $133.84, EPYC 32 cores $268.24 and EPYC 64 cores $469.84. Each price includes base memory, disks, network port, monthly transfer and dedicated IPv4 and IPv6. Just step up according to the number of cores you need.
How is a VPS different from a dedicated server?
A VPS splits one physical server into several virtual servers, while a dedicated server gives you a whole physical server to yourself. A VPS is inexpensive and good for spreading across several machines; a dedicated server has far more cores and memory and suits work that uses the whole hardware. A good path is to start small services on a VPS and move to a dedicated server as they grow.
How do I choose between Ryzen and EPYC?
If a high clock speed for finishing one task quickly matters most, Ryzen fits; if you need to run many tasks at once or use lots of memory, EPYC fits. Look at Ryzen first for game servers and real-time services, and EPYC first for databases, virtualization and heavy computation. Both lines are managed with the same billing and the same control panel.
Are there servers with a 10Gbps port?
Yes, EPYC 32-core and EPYC 64-core servers can choose a 10Gbit/s port instead of the standard 1Gbit/s port. They include 40TB and 50TB of monthly transfer respectively, giving plenty of bandwidth for large file distribution or services with many simultaneous connections. Ryzen and EPYC 24-core servers include 20TB and 30TB per month on a 1Gbit/s port.
Can I add memory later?
You can use configurations with memory raised up to the maximum shown on each card: up to 128GB for Ryzen, 768GB for EPYC 24 and 32 cores, and 1,152GB for EPYC 64 cores. For the configuration you need, request it on the support page after your first payment and we will explain the method and pricing. Starting with the base memory is fine too.
How do I pay for a dedicated server?
Pay with USDT to create your bare metal server. The first month is paid when you order, and the same amount is paid automatically on each billing date to renew it. Refunds are made to your account credit. Start right away with no card to register and no long-term contract.
What happens to my server if the payment is not made on the billing date?
If the payment is not made on the billing date, the server is suspended, and you can renew it by paying within 3 days. If there is still no payment after 3 days, the server and the data on its disks are deleted, so it is best to complete the payment before the billing date. Keeping a separate copy of important data elsewhere gives you extra peace of mind.
Can I run a mail server?
Port 25, used for sending mail, is closed to prevent spam. You can send notification emails through port 587 or 465 of an external mail sending service, and receiving mail and other ports work as usual. As long as your use complies with the acceptable use policy, set up your server freely. Install any software you like with root access.
Bare metal server guides
Guides worth following right after you get your dedicated server
- Your first loginThe steps to log in to your new server as root and change the password, with the SSH commands for Windows, Mac and Linux.
- Create and add an SSH keyHow to create a key with ssh-keygen and add it to connect securely to your dedicated server without a password.
- Basic firewall setupAn example firewall setup that opens only the ports you really need and closes the rest. It walks through keeping the web server and SSH ports.
Prices shown are monthly prices in US dollars, paid with USDT. The first month is charged when you receive the server, and it renews automatically at the same price on each billing date.
Minimum term: 1 month | Cancel: delete anytime from the control panel | If payment fails: suspended, then deleted 3 days later | Remaining time on deleted servers is not refunded. Refunds are made to your account credit.
