Blacksmith maintains a fleet of bare metal gaming CPUs that these runners are orchestrated over. When our fleet has substantial spare capacity, our system automatically bumps a runner to the next tier, at no additional cost to the user. Example: A blacksmith-4vcpu-ubuntu-2204 runner may get bumped to blacksmith-8vcpu-ubuntu-2204 for no additional cost.

Pre-installed Packages

​
x64

Blacksmith runners are pre-installed with the same dependencies supported by GitHub’s official runner image.

​
ARM

Unlike x64, GitHub has not published an official Ubuntu 22.04 image for ARM runners. As a result, Blacksmith ARM runners might not have the same compatibility as our x64 runners. If you have any specific requirements, please reach out to us at [email protected].
