You are probably thinking of some dual xeon or something...oh no...i need something very powerful.

Some guy working at some company used idle cycles of their 125killowat rig to mine bitcoins...with the cpu. It mined with 11 gigahashes...i said wut?

Where can one rent such a server...or an equal one to it for a few hours for not a very high price?

Sounds like hacking.

Huh? What hacking?

Oh never mind lol I just found out what Bitcoin was, I though mining was a hacking term.

Dikidera, you don't need a dual xeon at all. You'll want a GPU mining rig. Xeons are not good for mining.

There are a few companies that will allow you to rent a GPU rig

125kW is equivalent to 125,000 watts. Assuming you're using 110v then you're looking at 1136A which will cost you at least $11,360 per month, if you only need it for a day that's about $379 a day and hourly will run you about $15/hour and that doesn't include hardware, bandwidth, cabinet space, or IPs.

Good luck finding a place that will rent our a server by the hour.

You can look at cloud set ups but as KuJoe said it won't be cheap .

I know one or two GPU server builds., let me find my linux pro magazine.
