RAM runs out before CPU
Vanilla Minecraft is light. A modpack is not: Forge with 150 mods will happily take 8 GB on its own before a single player joins. Budget roughly 1 GB per ten vanilla players, then add the modpack's stated requirement on top and round up.
Single-core speed matters more than core count
Minecraft's tick loop is largely single-threaded, so a fast core beats many slow ones. That is why our VDS plans, with pinned physical cores, hold tick rate better than a bigger shared instance at the same price.
Ping is why you host in India
| Server location | Typical ping from Delhi | From Mumbai | From Bangalore |
|---|---|---|---|
| Our DEL-1 / BOM-1 | 8–14 ms | 6–12 ms | 28–40 ms |
| Singapore | 65–80 ms | 55–70 ms | 50–65 ms |
| Europe | 120–150 ms | 115–140 ms | 130–160 ms |
Figures are typical rather than guaranteed and depend on your ISP and route.
Getting started
- Pick a plan by player count and modpack, or call +91 75994 50220 and describe the server you want to run.
- Choose Mumbai or Delhi — whichever is closer to most of your players.
- The VPS is live in under a minute. Ask for Pterodactyl if you would rather not use SSH.
- Upload your world, or start fresh. Resize later without losing anything.
