GorillaServers - Dedicated Bare Metal for Validators & RPC Nodes

GorillaServers provides US-based dedicated bare-metal servers with unmetered 1 Gbps bandwidth and modern Ryzen and EPYC CPUs.

Unlike budget eco ranges, GorillaServers focuses on newer CPU tiers, higher clock profiles, and strong network backbones with instant deployment options.

Overview

For operators wanting dedicated US infrastructure with stronger CPU tiers, GorillaServers is a compelling alternative in the mid-tier dedicated market.

Validator Suitability

Validator-only deployments generally require:

Recommended Budget Validator Class

AMD Ryzen 7600
6c / 12t real cores, 64 GB RAM, NVMe storage, 1 Gbps unmetered bandwidth, approximately $89/month.

Why it works well:

RPC Suitability

Public RPC endpoints handling sustained traffic require higher core counts and thread capacity.

Recommended RPC Class

AMD Ryzen 7900
12c / 24t, 64 GB RAM, NVMe storage, 1 Gbps unmetered, approximately $99-$139/month.

Provides:

FoxxOne RPC previously ran on Rise LE-1 hardware (now discontinued). Ryzen 7900 class offers comparable real-world capability for modern deployments.

Deployment Strategy

Validator - Ryzen 7600 ($89/month)
Public RPC - Ryzen 7900 ($99+ /month)

This separation maintains validator stability while allowing RPC scaling without affecting consensus.

Pros

Tradeoffs

Summary

GorillaServers offers modern dedicated hardware with strong bandwidth and CPU performance. It is more expensive than OVH’s eco range but provides stronger base hardware and US-focused deployment.
