- AX52: AMD Ryzen 7 7700 / 64 GB / 2x1 TB NVMe - From 59€ [1] - EX44: Intel Core i5-13500 / 64 GB / 2x512 GB NVMe - From 44€ [2] - EX101: Intel Core i9-13900 / 64 GB / 2x1.92 TB NVMe - From 84€ [3] [1] https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax52 [2] https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ex44 [3] https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ex101

Big Hetzner fan, but the EX101 does not feel like a good value compared to the AX101 that they've had for a while. Yes, the i9-13900 is faster than the 5950X, but does that justify half the RAM and half the disk?

- EX101: Intel Core i9-13900 / 64 GB / 2x1.92 TB NVMe - From €84

- AX101: AMD Ryzen™ 9 5950X / 128GB / 2x3.84 TB NVMe - From €101

Both are an insane amount of compute for the price.

I'm considering using Hetzner (or equivalent) for our CI setup with Github Actions custom runners. Right now we're on CircleCI and it costs an arm and a leg.

Does anyone have experience to share with that kind of setup? What's the maintenance like?

Would love to see these offerings being available in the Ashburn VA location.

That's exactly one of my use cases, I have setup runner for 2 projects last week and action runtime went down by a large margin, from 10-15 to 3-4 minutes.

I use single dedicated server that costs ~40EUR/month, AX41-NVME, and each runner is a separate user account to allow for some isolation.

Depending on your setup, you might need to spent some time adjusting jobs to have proper setup/cleanup and isolation between them (but it's not really Hetzner specific, just general issue).
