I'm trying to make a comparison between DigitalOcean's and OVH's dedicated server CPUs. I know OVH's gaming servers are probably more performant than those on DigitalOcean. I just wanna know how that would translate in terms of actual usage.
EDIT
Maybe I should clarify a bit. OVH tells you exactly what CPU you're getting. An example of gaming dedicated server would have the following CPU specs
Intel i7-6700K - 4c/8t - 4GHz /4.2GHz
All I could find about DigitalOcean servers is that they are between 2.0 and 3.0 Ghz.
Also, in case it's not already clear by the question I'm asking, I'm not very familiar with the concepts of CPU performance per se. I'm not sure how an Intel i7-6700K differs from an Intel i7-7700K in terms of concrete performance and load that the CPU can handle. There are forums discussing these points, but in terms that only confused me further.
I know this should be very basic and apologize for my ignorance, but any references or plain explanations would be very appreciated.
