If you run a gaming community or broadcast high-definition streams, you are intimately familiar with the fear of data overage fees.

Did you know there is a massive difference between "Unlimited" and "Unmetered"?

Unlimited is a marketing buzzword designed to trap you in fine print.

Unmetered is an engineering term. You pay a flat rate for a dedicated pipe (like 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps) and use as much data as you physically can.

Unmetered dedicated servers are the only way to reliably handle 128Hz game tick rates, simultaneous high-bitrate video encoding, and volumetric DDoS attacks.

If your app is database-heavy, you need Redis. It’s that simple. By caching data in RAM, Redis delivers insanely fast response times.

Since Leo Servers provides unmanaged dedicated servers, you have full root access to install whatever you need. To help you get the most out of your hardware, we just dropped a massive tutorial on how to install and optimize Redis on Ubuntu and CentOS.

Here is a sneak peek of what you will learn:

Proper installation via APT and DNF.

Locking down Redis so you don't become a victim of port 6379 exploits.

Configuring AOF and RDB persistence.

OS-level tuning for maximum RAM efficiency.

Take control of your caching layer today!

If your server is lagging during horde nights, you need to switch to Linux. It’s that simple. Without a desktop GUI eating up your RAM, Linux gives your game the headroom it needs to run smoothly.

We’ve just dropped a complete, noob-friendly guide on how to set up a 7DTD dedicated server on Ubuntu/Debian using SteamCMD.

What you'll learn:

Installing SteamCMD properly.

Editing your server config files.

Setting up screen to keep your server running 24/7.

Automating hourly backups.

If you’re running a game server or developing a multiplayer game in 2026, you need a dedicated server. More importantly, you need it in the right physical city. Distance = Ping. It's just physics.

We just dropped a massive guide breaking down the absolute best cities in the world to host your game servers. Whether your players are dropping in from New York, dodging fire in Frankfurt, or raiding from Singapore, we have the routing data you need. We also cover why DDoS protection is basically mandatory now unless you want your server nuked by an angry 14-year-old. 🛡️

Stop letting your 3D scenes and 8K timelines crash your current setup.

If you're building a render farm in 2026, consumer gaming GPUs just aren't going to cut it anymore. They use active cooling (fans) that overheat in server racks, and they lack the error-correcting memory needed for long jobs.

The Industry Secret: Studios are moving to the NVIDIA L40S.

Why? Because it’s a total beast built specifically for media and AI. It features:

48GB of ECC VRAM so your multi-million polygon Blender or Unreal Engine 5 scenes never hit "Out of Memory" errors.

18,176 CUDA Cores to obliterate render wait times.

Triple AV1 Hardware Encoders to batch-export massive ProRes projects in record time.

Whether you are running heavy physics simulations, generating AI video natively, or just trying to get your Premiere Pro timeline to stop stuttering, the L40S is the answer.

At Leo Servers, we host these incredible GPUs on high-performance, dedicated infrastructure so you never have to worry about downtime, thermal throttling, or slow network uploads.

Are you tired of sluggish WordPress backends and abandoned carts? We just dropped a massive guide on how to configure a dedicated server specifically for heavy WooCommerce workloads.

We walk you through deploying a LEMP stack (Linux, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP 8.3), setting up WP-CLI, and the secret sauce of server tuning: 1️⃣ Redis Object Caching 2️⃣ PHP-FPM Worker Tuning 3️⃣ MariaDB / InnoDB Buffer Pool Sizing 4️⃣ CDN Offloading

Metered bandwidth = a data bucket. Once it's full, you pay more or get throttled. Unmetered bandwidth = a pipe. Your speed is fixed, but the flow never stops.

If you are running anything data-heavy—like a game server, a Plex streaming setup, a VPN, or massive data backups—metered bandwidth is a trap waiting to hand you a massive overage bill. 💸

"Unlimited" plans on shared hosting are usually a lie (check the fine print for fair-use policies). If you want real, raw, uncapped data transfer, you need an Unmetered Dedicated Server. You pick a port speed (100Mbps, 1Gbps, 10Gbps), and you own that connection 24/7.

We just published a massive guide over at Leo Servers breaking down exactly who needs these servers and how to choose the right network speed for your project.

By bringing the latest Open-source LLMs 2026 has to offer in-house, you can regain complete control over your proprietary data while drastically reducing long-term inference costs.

Upgrading your server infrastructure? You need to look at the AMD EPYC 9355P.

AMD engineered this thing to be the perfect balance of power and efficiency for dedicated servers. We’re talking: ✔️ 32 Cores / 64 Threads (Zen 5 architecture) ✔️ 4.4 GHz Boost Clock ✔️ Massive 256 MB L3 Cache (Your databases will love this!) ✔️ 12-Channel DDR5 & PCIe Gen 5

If you run high-traffic web apps, dense Proxmox virtualization, or heavy container orchestration, this is the hardware you want your projects sitting on.

We just did a massive deep dive on our site comparing it to the competition and explaining the architecture.

There are two types of server admins: those who panic when a service goes down, and those who immediately open their terminal. 🧑‍💻

If you want to be the second kind, you need to know your way around the Linux command line. We just dropped a massive tutorial over at Leo Servers covering everything from journalctl log reading and systemd service restarts to finding out exactly which process is secretly eating all your RAM.

We even included a 10-step troubleshooting framework for when things inevitably break.

Installing an OS on a dedicated server isn't like installing it on your home PC. If you want a production-ready environment, you have to get your hands dirty with BIOS configs, hardware RAID drivers, and security hardening.

Installing Windows Server will erase all existing data on the target disk(s). Always back up existing OS partitions before proceeding!

Over at Leo Servers, we've documented our exact process for installing Windows Server 2019/2022 on bare metal.

Here is what you'll learn:

How to build UEFI-compatible boot media.

Accessing and configuring IPMI / iDRAC / iLO.

Ever wonder why your ping suddenly spikes in the middle of a crucial Valorant or CS2 match? It’s usually because the game server is running on shared cloud architecture far away from you.

In 2026, the biggest trend in multiplayer game hosting is a massive return to bare-metal dedicated servers in Singapore. 🇸🇬

Singapore sits right on top of the best submarine cables in Asia. If you host a game there, players from Jakarta to Manila get completely flatline, ultra-low ping (we're talking 30-50ms). No shared CPU, no random lag spikes—just pure hardware performance.

If you're an indie dev building the next big multiplayer game, or a business trying to conquer the APAC market, you need to be looking at Singapore hosting.
