Why host Fabric on Prism Nodes

Owned hardware

Single-thread speed that drives your TPS

Fabric is a CPU-bound, single-thread-heavy workload, so raw per-core speed sets your tick rate far more than core count. Every plan pairs high-clock AMD Ryzen 9 9950X cores (Ryzen 9 7900 on Basic) with DDR5 memory and Gen 4 NVMe storage, so chunk loading, world generation, and mod tick logic stay fast deep into a modded world.

How to make a Fabric server

  1. 1
    Create a server on a plan with at least 6 GB of RAM.
  2. 2
    Choose Fabric as your server type in one click from our Pterodactyl-based panel — no manual jar setup.
  3. 3
    Install your mods, or a full modpack, from the panel or by uploading them, matching the Fabric version you selected.
  4. 4
    Start the server, allocate RAM with matched -Xms/-Xmx and optimized flags, and invite your players.

How much RAM does a Fabric server need?

We recommend 6 GB of RAM to run Fabric comfortably, with 3 GB as a practical minimum for a small setup. Fabric itself is lightweight — your real memory use comes from the mods, players, and world size you run on top of it.

Budget more heap as you add content and players: a large modpack on Fabric wants noticeably more than a bare install. Keep -Xms and -Xmx matched so the JVM never resizes the heap under load.
