TF2 Servers with the best performance?

Tragicservers is fantastic for NA. Helpful support, decent prices (especially if you use a promo code), and it pumps resources back into the community. Idk about eu though (judging off your flag).

If you don't mind putting in a little work I've found the best servers are private ones. As in, rent a box and install tf2 on it yourself.

Unfortunately, I can't post links or codes here but feel free to message me on Steam. More than happy to answer any questions you have may have.

If you know how to set it up and paying a bit above the mean price wise then NFO VDS servers are the best servers by far performance wise that I have found. (tried nfo game servers, tragicservers(tragic resells nfo servers), gameservers, and evl)

Have some anecdotal evidence:
Tragic is ok as long as you get lucky with what host your server is on. There's a chance you could get put on a crowded host (one that's running too many servers for its hardware to properly support, this might only be an issue with Chicago since so many teams want servers there). We had this happen last season (highlander) with our server, even with the "priority booster" addon you can purchase. Server was fine before ~6PM, but after that it would gradually degrade until server fps was extremely unstable (fluctuations of +/- 20fps, server frametime std dev ~8ms) at about 9PM when everyone was having scrims.
On match nights, server was averaging 30fps and occasionally dropping into single digit fps (server frametime std dev of over 40-50 ms). Repeated contact with support only yielded the standard "try resetting your server/running with no plugins" response, which we did to no effect.

Accelerate has cheap prices but fairly poor routing anywhere west of Chicago (for Chicago servers, anyway)

I run 3-4 servers on an NFO VPS system (VDS is more expensive but even better), and I could not be happier with the performance. That is how you will get the most performance, but tragicservers or a standard nfo server tend to have the best performance of the pre-setup systems.

We have multiple machines in Chicago. In the future, just send me a message on Steam and we can move you to another machine if you're experiencing odd issues. Either way, send me a message on Steam. I'd like to hear more about this.
