Render Farm For Adobe After Effects

Hardware Hub Build a PC
1

Hello guys,

So I want to get a few more machines working on my projects on After Effects. Now my question is this:

What sort of hardware is best for a non gaming rendering machine? Do I still need a beefy Gcard or just raw compute power?

Many thanks in advance.

I feel sad now ._.

Something reasonably priced please :)

Isn't there like a rent-a-server farm program over the cloud, basically an online render-farm service?

Would that not be terrible for rendering After Effect Frames?

The internet is OK here but still :)

What's your budget? Many here can probably recommend you an affordable workstation build using Xeons for Multi-threading and Nvidia for Cuda if that's all your looking for. Maybe a dual Xeon build.

What is your budget ? Are you using ray tracing ?

I would say about $1000 US ray tracing is a affirmative gentlemen/women :)

You know Adobe's crap supports OpenGL / CL as well, so the most important thing now is calculation ability of the gpu...

If that is your budget it would be better to use the cloud services like Giulianno_D mentioned.

Made a little box for handbrake (so no gpu). Maybe interesting for you: click.
