High-performance UK VPS hosting engineered to eliminate bottlenecks. Powered by the latest AMD Ryzen 9 9950x processors with DDR5 RAM and Gen4 NVMe SSD storage - all hosted in our UK datacentre with 800Gbps DDoS protection included.
Advanced infrastructure and premium features included with every AMD Ryzen 9 9950x UK VPS plan.
16-core Zen 5 processor with 5.7GHz max boost. Significantly faster than the Intel Xeon chips used by most UK VPS providers - especially for single-threaded workloads.
PCIe Gen4 NVMe delivers 3,800+ MB/s sequential read speeds - exponentially faster than SATA SSD or spinning HDD. Minimal I/O wait, fast database queries, instant OS boots.
Always-on Advanced DDoS mitigation at the network edge - included free on every UK VPS plan. Malicious traffic is scrubbed before it touches your server.
Every UK VPS connects to a 10Gbps port with a guaranteed 5Gbps throughput - 10x faster than the standard 1Gbps offered by Ionos, Fasthosts, and Heart Internet.
5600MT/s DDR5 memory allocated exclusively to your VPS. Higher bandwidth than DDR4, with no overcommitment or sharing between customers.
Every UK VPS includes 1 dedicated IPv4 address and a full /64 IPv6 subnet at no extra cost. Additional IPv4 addresses available at £1.85/mo each.
Upload up to 2 custom ISO images (8GB each) to boot from. Run any OS - including niche Linux distros, FreeBSD, or custom builds not in our template library.
Automatic daily snapshots stored off-site. Take manual snapshots at any time and restore instantly via VirtFusion - roll back in seconds, not hours.
Complete control with the VirtFusion control panel - VNC browser console, OS rebuilds, ISO mounting, rDNS management, network controls, and real-time monitoring.
Scalable UK VPS hosting powered by AMD Ryzen 9 9950x, DDR5 RAM, 10Gbps network and Gen4 NVMe SSD storage. No setup fees. No overselling.
We never oversell our UK VPS hosting. All hardware resources are guaranteed as specified. Each vCPU core can burst to 100% for 45 minutes daily with 65% sustained under normal use. Connected to a 10Gbps port with a 5Gbps guaranteed throughput subject to our Fair Usage Policy.
Integrated directly with our AMD Ryzen 9950x UK VPS infrastructure, VirtFusion makes provisioning fast, rebuilds near-instant, and day-to-day management effortless.
Our UK VPS platform is built on the AMD Ryzen 9 9950x - a 16-core Zen 5 processor running at up to 5.7GHz with 64MB L3 cache and native DDR5 support. Here's why it matters for your workloads.
AMDs latest Zen 5 brings significant improvements in instructions per clock, branch prediction, and cache behaviour - translating directly to faster response times for websites, databases, and control panels.
High single-core clock speed matters for latency-sensitive tasks. The 9950x delivers excellent responsiveness for cPanel, game servers, trading platforms, and PHP-heavy web apps.
A large shared L3 cache reduces memory access latency for busy databases, caching-heavy applications, and sustained virtualised workloads.
DDR5 at 5600MT/s delivers far greater bandwidth than DDR4 - handling more concurrent requests and heavier memory workloads without the bottlenecks common on older platforms.
Add extra resources to your UK VPS at any time through the control panel. All add-ons activate instantly with no setup fees.

Automated trading systems rely on low latency and stable performance - UK VPS delivers both, 24/7.
A UK VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a virtualised server hosted in a UK datacentre, providing dedicated resources - CPU, RAM, and storage - that are completely isolated from other users on the same physical machine. Unlike shared hosting, you are not competing for resources with other customers.
VM6 Networks uses KVM virtualisation - the most robust virtualisation technology available. Each KVM VPS has hardware-level isolation, meaning your vCPU cores, DDR5 RAM, and NVMe SSD storage are guaranteed as specified and cannot be overcommitted.
You get full root access, the ability to install any software, run any operating system from our template library or via custom ISO upload, and complete control over your server environment - from firewall rules to kernel parameters.
If your audience is in the UK, hosting your VPS in a UK datacentre makes a measurable difference. Network latency from our Coventry datacentre to UK users is typically under 5ms - compared to 20–50ms from European servers or 80–150ms from US-based providers.
For UK businesses, a UK-hosted VPS also simplifies GDPR compliance - your data stays within the United Kingdom, reducing cross-border data transfer complexity under UK data protection law.
For Forex traders and high-frequency applications, UK latency to London-based brokers from our Coventry DC is consistently low - making VM6 UK VPS hosting a popular choice for MT4 and MT5 trading deployments.
We benchmarked VM6 against the most popular UK VPS providers. The hardware gap speaks for itself.

I can only say excellent things. Rob and the team are efficient and hard working to ensure that they deliver a great product. Highly recommend.
I had been desperate as VPS never worked for my app — always freezes during peak times. VM6 finally gave what my app needs. It's smooth and never lags. So lucky finding this provider. No more tricks, just real performance.
The order / payment and setup were a breeze.. It took me about 20 mins to first find the site, order, get setup then install my MTrader terminal and my EA. I really cant fault it.. Support - Also excellent, I had some some questions pre and post ordering and I got answers within minutes.. Use them !
We’ve been really impressed with VM6. Performance is excellent, with the latest Ryzen-powered servers delivering very fast, reliable performance. Support has been responsive and helpful whenever needed. Great value for the spec. A solid hosting provider.
I purchased 3 VPS subscriptions back in November 2025, performance has been great (exceeded my expectations), and the support team, specifically Rob, has been polite, friendly and always very responsive.
Ordered a VPS from VM6. Reached out to support to see if an updated distro image could be added to the OS reinstallation options - support were very prompt and friendly - great service!
A very good VPS service provider with stable operation! A++++
