Single-thread
The tick loop runs on one core.
Minecraft simulates the world on a single main thread, so per-core speed decides whether a busy server holds 20 TPS. That is why every plan gets the 9950X.

How much does Minecraft server hosting cost?
$2 per GB of memory: $8 a month for 4 GB, $16 for 8 GB and $64 for 32 GB, every plan on the Ryzen 9 9950X. Extra threads are $3 a month each, and the renewal price is the signup price.
How much RAM do I need for a modded Minecraft server?
For up to 15 players we'd start a light modpack at 12 GB and a heavy one such as All The Mods at 16 GB. For 16 to 40 players that becomes 16 GB and 24 GB. The configurator at the top of this page suggests a size from your player count and pack type.
What CPU is best for a Minecraft server?
Single-thread speed matters most, because the server simulates the world on one main thread. That's why every Darkless plan runs on the Ryzen 9 9950X, which scores 4,727 in PassMark's single-thread test.
Which control panel do you use?
Pterodactyl. File manager, console, sub-users, scheduled tasks, backups and a one-click modpack installer.
What's the difference between plans?
Every plan runs on the same 9950X hardware. Plans differ by RAM, included threads, storage, splits and port allocations. Use the recommender to find a starting point; you can add threads or move up later.
How do server splits work?
On 6 GB and larger plans you can split your RAM and threads into several independent servers from the panel: a lobby, a creative world and your survival server on one plan.
Can I use a custom modpack or JAR?
Yes. Full SFTP access for any version, modpack or custom JAR, plus one-click installs for CurseForge, FTB, Technic and Modrinth packs.
Will you migrate my server?
Yes, free. World files, plugins, configs and player data. Open a ticket or ask on Discord and we'll schedule it.
What is the refund policy?
48 hours from placing an order, per our Terms of Service. It doesn't apply to recurring invoices.
