The advantages of a Game server

Icons/concept/antiDdosProtection Created with Sketch.

Anti-DDoS Game

The Anti-DDoS Game solution, included with all of our Game dedicated servers, is the most efficient and robust on the market. Its purpose is to avoid any downtime for your services. Unlike standard solutions, it is adapted to UDP traffic (used for video, audio and video games), with ingress and egress traffic reviewed. Game-specific profiles can also be applied, to further optimise the protection. In case of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, players are not aware of anything!

The ultimate gaming experience

Our Game servers have up to 1Gbit/s bandwidth, to process traffic without compromising service availability. With datacentres based across the globe, you can rent servers closest to where your gamers are based, for the lowest latency possible. It is a perfect solution for professional resellers and software publisher, with optimal performance at an affordable price.

Raw power for gaming

The latest generation of AMD Ryzen processors is based on Zen 3 architecture. It brings important changes, which result in better performance. We provide you with the full power of these processors, thanks to liquid cooling (watercooling) ensuring optimal efficiency. With this new generation of Ryzen processors, you gain up to 26% more performance than with the previous versions (3000 series).
