Buying a GPU Dedicated Server

Order a GPU Dedicated Server from GPU Server in Quick Buy: choose a server by its GPU, select Configure Server, choose the location and operating system, and pay. Our team then sets up the machine, and it appears in Servers as Pending until it's ready.

Where to start​

  • In Dash: select GPU Server under Quick Buy at the top of Dash. On a smaller screen, open the Quick Buy button at the bottom of the page. You need to be signed in.
  • On perlod.com: start from a server on perlod.com/gpu-dedicated-server. You can configure it before signing in. Dash asks you to sign in or sign up when you select Review and continue, and keeps your choices.

Choose a server by its GPU​

The page, Select a GPU Dedicated Server, lists servers as cards. On each card:

  • the line under the name is the GPU model
  • the GPU memory and GPU interface rows show the memory on the card and how it's attached
  • the rows below show the CPU, Cores / Threads, RAM, Storage, Port, Bandwidth, an estimated Delivery time where there is one, and the locations

The GPU is fixed for each server. You don't choose or change it on the configure page, so pick the card with the GPU you need.

Narrow the list with Region, Hardware, and Use Cases, the same filters as Dedicated Server. Only filters with a choice to make are shown. Use the Monthly / Annually switch to compare prices. A card that shows Sold Out or Not available to order can't be ordered right now.

Configure the server​

  1. Select Configure Server on the server you want.
  2. Location: pick a region, then a location. Any location surcharge appears in the order summary. See perlod.com/locations for what's offered where.
  3. Operating system: pick an image. The list appears after you choose a location.
  4. Network: choose a Traffic option, and an Additional public IP if the server offers one.
  5. Managed support: one plan is always selected. A plan marked Contact sales can't be added here. Continue with a plan you can select and open a ticket about it.
  6. Check the summary, Your server. It includes a GPU row, so confirm the GPU is the one you want. It also shows your choices, any one-time setup fee, the total, the Billing period, and an estimated delivery time if the server has one.
  7. Select Review and continue.

Review and pay​

  1. On the review step, check the details. To change anything, use Back to configuration or your browser's Back button.
  2. Add a promo code if you have one, and confirm the billing period.
  3. Select Continue to payment, choose a payment method, and pay.

After payment​

You land on Payment received. Select Go to invoice or Go to my servers.

The server appears in Servers as Pending while our team sets up the machine. The status moves to In progress and then to Active. Once it's Active, open it with View details to find its IP addresses and controls.

Partial payment does not activate the service

If a crypto payment settles for less than the full amount, the invoice becomes Partially paid and the server is not set up yet. Pay the remaining balance from the invoice to move it forward.
