I'm running my instance with lots of bridges in a 3-core 4GB server, paying about eight euros a month for it. Synapse runs just fine, but I'll probably switch to the Rust impl when it's done.

If you want to go cheaper and have only 300-400 Mbps of bandwidth, I've heard lots of good things about this provider:

Contabo is great: finally a provider that does not save on mem and disk space. I moved everything to them and I save tons of money. The 400mbps is only for the cheapest as well: you can pay more to get more. Not that most people would need more. Especially for running matrix for a company etc.
