DigitalOcean Got Intel Platium on Digital Ocean for regular price.

dam that would of been a nice vps if you kept that Intel Xeon Platinum cpu !!!!

 

nice it's been a while since I played with new DO droplets so might go hunting for some Xeon Gold/Platinum cpu ones too just to see if they exist on regular priced DO droplets instead of guaranteed on DO Optimised CPU droplets.

 

I see.. guess depends on the DC too.

 

Well finally landed on an DO Intel Xeon Gold 6140 - not platinum for regular DigitalOcean 2 CPU, 60GB US$15/month droplet in SFO2
