The short answer

FiveM server hosting runs a dedicated GTA V multiplayer server built on the Cfx.re platform, where you load resources such as roleplay frameworks, jobs and vehicles. You need a free Cfx.re license key, a server artifact, your server.cfg, and enough RAM and CPU for your slots and resources.

Guide
Small servers can start around 4 GB. Roleplay servers with many resources and 64+ slots usually do better on 8-16 GB, and CPU speed matters as much as RAM.

High-clock CPUs

FiveM scripts and OneSync are sensitive to single-core speed. Ryzen 9 9950X cores keep ticks smooth.

Full file access

Upload resources, edit server.cfg and manage the server through the file manager and live console.

DDoS protection

Always-on DDoS protection matters for public roleplay servers that attract attacks.

Sub-users for staff

Give admins and developers access through sub-users without sharing your account.

What you need to run a FiveM server

A FiveM server needs four things: a Cfx.re license key (free from the Cfx.re Keymaster), the server artifact (the server build), a server.cfg that sets your name, slots and resources, and a database if your framework stores data.

Popular roleplay frameworks include ESX and QBCore. They ship as resources you place in the resources folder and start from server.cfg.

OneSync, slots and performance

OneSync lets a server go past the old player cap and is used by most larger roleplay communities. More slots and more resources mean more CPU work per tick, so choose a plan with headroom instead of the bare minimum.

Memory use depends mostly on your resource list. Start small, watch the console and your players, then scale up. Upgrades keep your files.

Databases and backups

Most roleplay frameworks keep characters and inventories in a MySQL or MariaDB database. The Pterodactyl panel can create databases for your server, and daily backups protect your files and configs.

FiveM hosting FAQ

How much RAM does a FiveM server need?

Small servers can start around 4 GB. Roleplay servers with many resources and 64 or more slots usually run better on 8-16 GB. CPU speed matters as much as RAM.

Do I need a license key?

Yes. FiveM requires a free license key from the Cfx.re Keymaster. You add it to your server.cfg.

Can I run ESX or QBCore?

Yes. They are resources you upload and start from server.cfg, with a MySQL or MariaDB database for data.

Does OneSync work?

OneSync is a server setting. Enable it in your configuration, and pick a plan with enough CPU for your slot count.

Is there DDoS protection?

Yes, always-on DDoS protection is included on every plan.

Can my staff manage the server?

Yes. Add sub-users in the panel with only the permissions they need.

Where is the server hosted?

In Frankfurt, Germany, with a 25 Gbps uplink per node (not a guaranteed line rate).
