Which dedicated server specs are better for hosting a server?

I’m looking at two options:

Intel Xeon D1520
4c / 8t
2.2GHz
32GB DDR3 ECC 2133MHz
@ $31.00

or

Intel Xeon E3 1245v5
4c / 8t
3.5GHz
32GB DDR4 ECC 2133MHz
@ $39.00

Is the cheaper option perfectly capable of running a FiveM server with 64 slots? Or should I opt for the slightly more expensive server?

Just do yourself a favor and go for the second option,
Better core speed + DDR4 worth the extra money

FiveM prefers high single core performance so go with the second option.

What i dont get is why you choose a xenon over a consumer cpu with even higher clockspeeds but im sure you have your reasons for that.
