CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A dedicated 32-core compute-optimized server with bundled SSD storage and high-speed networking for predictable multi-threaded workloads.
The OVHcloud c2-120 is a compute-optimized server instance featuring 32 dedicated physical Intel cores running at 3.0 GHz with no hyperthreading. It is configured with 120.0 GB of RAM, a bundled 400 GB local SSD, and a 10 Gbps baseline network interface. Benchmark results position this instance in the average tier for general compute, with a PassMark CPU score of 40620.12 and a multi-core Geekbench score of 11504.0. It demonstrates strong performance in cached memory bandwidth and multi-threaded bzip3 decompression, though it exhibits weak capabilities in LLM text generation. The c2-120 is designed for compute-heavy workloads such as software compilation, static web serving, and database operations that benefit from dedicated, non-shared CPU resources.
