There is a very grainy picture of some servers on a rack (and a small table?)
And what looks like Luca mounting an axial fan to an exhaust pipe (I really do not understand why you would put an exhaust fan in a DC especially if you have AC, my makeshift colocation garage is completely air tight because I really don't want oxygen actively feeding an eventual fire or dust getting into the server fans)
Looking at the photos on the Google Maps entry, the composition of the rack and the mood of the DC checks out.
c1v control panel has template only with two choices for OS auto install. That is just one factor good enough to qualify as low end of low end providers.
please do not lump c1v together with low end providers. i have never seen other providers even the scammy ones with only 2 OS templates and rarely any that limits CPU to 20% of a thread, masked as "AI", hosted in a "TIER III design datacenter".
garage is a garage, at least iHostART and the other i forgot his name were truthful about it.
hence I would take his "performance advisory" extremely seriously and apply caveat emptor on this one.
I take all your comments into consideration to help me improve.
Taking your comments at face value, here is a suggestion if you may want to consider.
Looks at YABS benchmarks (there is a YABS thread) from other providers, this will give an idea how much improvement is needed.

Why Pom1 and Pom2 are on a fruit crate.
Pom is short for Pomegranate, or Pomelo.
O. I thought it was because there was a small handwritten label on the minitower desktop PCs with Porn1 and Porn2, but there was not enough space between the r and n characters, so in the end the names were misunderstood...

In my opinion C1V is not suitable for you, because it is very slow; it is way too oversold.
It's not oversold. It's AI.
What AI? This is not some multi-billion dollar investment in AI from some big corporation. This is just overselling to keep costs low.
This idea of overselling like crazy might be great at start to attract customers on cheap prices, but too many customers like this can also tarnish the brand with bad reviews, therefore better services at higher costs will be needed once the brand is settled in publicity.
GB score can vary a lot, if past history is any indication.

People play with words. in an era of AI race suckers believe such info when using a search engine, while not reading the full text. We therefore increase the provider's sales and make things even more oversold (worse).

It seems this guy has some passion. I have to admit that I like it. I don't like his overselling, but then again I like his dedication.
Keep up the good work @c1vhosting and please share more pictures for us, the buyers.
Pom is short for Pomegranate, or Pomelo.
I am tempted to buy one and mess with their "AI" cause I am bored

Where yabs of this amazing high performance servers?
Be patient. It takes a while and several attempts to produce yabs on a C1V vps...
Be ready for GB6 single core of below 350. After all it is the AI magic.
@c1vhosting -- feel free to correct me if I have stated any incorrect info.
You can have mine for free if C1V allows service transfers. I'm done playing with it.

Can I use ffmpeg on it?
It takes 10 seconds to start running a "nano" command, and you want to run that?

Disk IOPS is pretty low .... is it because of low performance advisory, @c1vhosting ?

Even nested VM inside a VPS is faster than @c1vhosting "performance advisory" vps
Not a week is boring when you're with C1V... now the IPv4 address is unresponsive (assigned IPv6 address responds) for over 5 hours already...
The fun part: I've just turned off the VPS, and IPv6 keeps on replying...
