So now I have to ring them up again and explain I need the HUB 5 so I can maximize my speeds and I will then just buy a PCIe 2.5gig card as well. I mean of course I want to max it and get the maximum I can get. I waited a long time for my postcode to enable the 1gbs. I was basically 1 of the last to get it enabled. Which just totally angered me. Then I find out my PC is not capable of reaching the max speeds.

So yeah thanks again all. Will ring them tomorrow and see if they can send me one at NO extra cost etc.
the age old story of not getting what you pay for. you'll need 2.5gbe nic on your pc and a hub5. you aint getting a hub5 from VM, believe me ive tried. just have to wait like the rest of us untill they go on release later this year.
