DayZ Server Hosting

A DayZ server scales to around 60 players, and the mod list drives most of the resource requirement. A vanilla Chernarus server runs on 8 GB, while a heavily modded Livonia server can exceed 12 GB. Mods also increase storage needs considerably.

Recommended plan by player count

These values map one to one onto the VDS plan steps in our catalogue. Intermediate values can also be selected in the configurator.

The amounts in the table are the monthly net price of each processor option and match the calculation in the configurator. The value option uses DDR4 memory, the performance option DDR5. Billing period (3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months) and extra resources are calculated in the configurator. Some recommended values exceed this product's maximum, so the price is calculated from the configuration clamped to that limit; for higher resources, review the dedicated servers.

Prices exclude VAT (20%).

How to choose the hardware

The Central Economy (loot economy) runs continuously on the server side and accounts for a significant share of CPU use. Mod downloads and verification are storage intensive, so NVMe shortens boot time. Mod updates require a restart, which you manage yourself from the panel.

Which processor family?

Most game servers run on a single thread, so per-core performance matters more than core count.

Intel i9-10980XE

Central Economy and AI load are sensitive to single-core performance, and this family stays balanced up to 60 players.
