The OVH Eco-line (Kimsufi, So You Start..) are incredibly good and affordable. I have a few beefy servers, which I use to create my own VPS service on top of Proxmox. I'm not a sysadm and it's still simple to setup and maintain.

Eco is clever, because they reuse good hardware pieces to assemble new servers, instead of throwing out as garbage...

Have been a very happy user with several servers for quite some time.
