$50 a month will absolutely rent you a pretty great dedicated server: https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/matrix-ex https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/matrix-ex €46.41 ($50.10 USD) rents you a single physical computer with a i5-13500 CPU, 64 GB DDR4, 2 x 512 GB NVMe SSDs. If you want cheap dedicated servers, you can get even lower prices (though the value may not be as good): SoYouStart (OVH but in North America) has $30 dedicated servers[0], OVH in France has dedicated servers (Intel Atom tier, but still your own whole computer) for $11 a month[1].

In the world of dedicated, you can get so much more vs what you'd pay for the equivalent EC2 instance.
