Network rendering with Rasberry Pi?

Post by neo0. » Wed Jan 25, 2017 8:14 am

Hey all, long time no see I guess. Busy with trying to kick off my design career :)

Stumbled across an article saying that Asus put out a $68 computer that can play 4k video. For someone who can't afford the 5k, imac this is dream come true. Caveat is I have almost zero technical knowledge, but I immediately started to wonder if you could daisy chain these things together to get some crazy rendering mojo. ;) 3 of them together would cost less than 1/4 the computer I use to render on and would pack over twice the power. So, I gotta wonder would this be possible?

I bet you'd need like 50 of those to get the rendering speed of a GTX 1070 or so. With about 50 times the hassle as well.
