Dedicated server for speed.

Hi,

I am relatively new to dedicated servers which has brought me to this forum to ask a few questions.

I am wanting to find a powerful dedicated server, something with minimum 12 fast cores/24 hyper threading. More cores and faster the cores/processor the better.

The purpose of the dedicated server is to run an a program that can access all the computers resources to speed up the process. So if the dedicated server has 12 or 24 or 32 cores it can access them all. The more cores, and faster cores, will just speed up the whole process. My computer is very under powered and the application needs to be running 24/7 accessing all of the computers/dedicated servers resources.

I have found some companies that sell these types of dedicated servers but they cost anywhere upwards of 500 dollars per month.

Does anyone know of a company which has what I am looking for but for a cheaper cost?

Can you overclock a dedicated server?

I am also looking into private clouds and I see very little differences between them and a dedicated server. To my knowledge the resources are not shared like a VPS or a public cloud.

Thanks!
