We build the servers behind your community.
We hand-build, overclock, and liquid-cool your game hosting hardware, then test each build for 72 hours. VxShield DDoS protection comes with every plan. Founded in Portugal in 2022, VYKIX offers managed game servers, Game VPS, and dedicated servers.

I was tired of hosting that looked fast on paper and failed under pressure.
I watched server owners buy impressive specifications, then deal with hot hardware, throttling under load, and generic DDoS protection when their communities needed it most.
I started VYKIX to set a different default. We overclock and liquid-cool every server, validate every build for 72 hours, and include VxShield across every service.
My mission is to make VYKIX the hosting provider serious communities choose first, without turning performance and protection into paid extras.
See what comes standardOverclocking and protection come with your server.
These are included across managed hosting, Game VPS, and bare metal. Every liquid-cooled build completes a 72-hour load test before handover.
- 01
Overclocked by default
Every VYKIX server runs above stock clock settings.
- 02
Liquid-cooled and tested
Every build is liquid-cooled and load-tested for 72 hours before handover.
- 03
VxShield on every plan
DDoS protection is included and filters attacks upstream before legitimate traffic is forwarded.

Choose how much you manage
Run your game with managed hosting, take root access with Game VPS, or rent a whole physical server.
Watch one VYKIX server take shape.
Seventy seconds from processor installation to the finished build. Every build then runs 72 hours under load before handover.
DDoS protection included with every plan.
VxShield sits upstream of every VYKIX plan. It filters attack traffic across a global Anycast edge, then forwards player traffic to your server.
