64 Core Advice

Hi, excuse my ignorance and thanks in advance for any advice.

I need an upgrade! For context, I trade stocks for a living and I use a VPS to run my backtesting data programs.

The VPS is 32vCPU / 64GB RAM / 500GB SSD but is too slow.

I believe VPS cores are not the same as actual cores??

Anyway, I only need a build to run one program that processes lots of data, no visual or graphics requirements.

I’ve been looking into 64core threadrippers, not too sure if they are needed, or the tradeoff between threads and cores etc.

I’m new to all of this.

Can anyone recommend a DFY build or requirements for processing speed of data.

I’d like the speed of the system to be at least 5 x faster than the VPS i am using.

Thanks in advance

I guess the backtesting data programs are scalable by cores?

I'm not so sure you will get 5x faster with 2x the cores, what is the spec of the current server?

This means ver little, on the server itself if you lookup system information it will give more detail

And a link to the specific software you need to run on it would be helpful.
