Current network hashrate is equivalent of 1189529.29 Petaflops.
That's 60 000 of your Blue Genie computers.

You do the math newbie

The actual hashing power of the BTC network is 1039.79 peta-FLOPS.

Using a benchmark of aprox 200 peta-FLOPS per 65MW datacenter, three such facilities could launch a 51% attack on the BTC network.

Math Done

That's a fairly outdated article, also the Utah Data Center is all disk drives, several YottaBytes worth... no processing power, that's at Oak Ridge, TN in the Titan super computer there. 20 PetaFLOPS

I guess your name actually says it all "CTL_ALT_DEL" *poof* Shocked

Edit: currently it would take 59547.8285 Titan's to equal the hashing power of the network.
