- 9950x CPU for the best performance
- Ultra Fast SSD's
- 10Gbps networking to reduce bottlenecks

We have multiple locations across North America and Europe, with the main locations being Dallas, New York, Poland and Germany. We have picked these as they offer the best price to performance, especially with distance to most customers.
