UK-hosted baremetal dedicated servers built for Rust — full physical machines for networks running dozens of instances, no virtualization overhead, no shared resources, IPMI access included.
Every box is single-tenant — the CPU, RAM and disks are entirely yours.
Need a specific CPU, more drive bays or a custom RAID layout? Contact us — most hardware requests ship within a week.
Every baremetal box sits behind our own fibre runs into a UK anycast network, so routes stay short, floods get scrubbed at the edge, and your hardware never becomes the bottleneck on wipe day.
Dedicated fibre between our core and edge PoPs, not shared public transit, for fewer hops and steadier round-trip times.
Your IP is announced from every edge, so floods are absorbed at the nearest PoP long before they reach your hardware.
Multi-carrier UK connectivity keeps routes short into UK and EU networks, so raids and PvP stay responsive.
Click a node or fibre run on the map to see details — every edge metro doubles as an A2S query cache, so your server answers the in-game browser faster wherever your players connect from.
The result: shorter routes, attacks absorbed before they ever reach your hardware, and stable ping for players connecting from anywhere in the world. Read the full DDoS protection breakdown or see our datacenter.
Real feedback from admins running Rust networks on our baremetal boxes.
Ordered a Ryzen 9800X3D box and it's genuinely just mine — no virtualization overhead, no other tenant fighting for cycles. Wipe day doesn't even blip.
Fat-fingered a config and locked myself out over SSH. Remote KVM through IPMI had me back in within minutes, no ticket needed.
Wipe day used to tank our old host's shared vCPU. Moved to a Ryzen 7950X and server FPS hasn't dipped once, even with the whole clan back online at once.
Running three Rust servers plus a Pterodactyl panel off one Intel Core i9-14900K box. Nobody else's workload anywhere near mine.
Needed Windows Server for a side project alongside our Linux game servers. Imaged it myself via IPMI in about twenty minutes.
Moved an existing setup over with full root access. Snapshot, restore, done — didn't have to touch a single plugin config.
Had a kernel module missing for a custom install at 1am and live chat sorted it in minutes, no waiting days on a ticket reply.
Outgrew our VDS plan and moved to a Ryzen 5800X box. The difference under a full server of players is obvious within the first wipe.
Yes, every baremetal plan includes out-of-band IPMI / remote KVM so you can reinstall the OS or recover a box without opening a ticket.
A VDS is a virtualized slice of a shared host. Baremetal is the entire physical machine — no hypervisor overhead, and every core and disk is exclusively yours.
Any Linux distro or Windows Server image you like, installed via IPMI, or we'll image it for you at setup.
In-stock configurations deploy same day. Custom hardware requests typically ship within a week.
