Hello people of the forum, my name is Michael.
I would like to ask if anyone has experience with render farms to help me out. I am currently trying to setup our office farm, something small probably but i would like some feedback by some more experienced users.
Do you think a setup of multiple nodes that have lower core count (but higher speed) is better, or fewer nodes with more cores is optimal?
For example would it be best to setup two nodes with the Threadripper PRO 3995WX which has 64 cores (so two nodes like that total of 128 cores) or would it be better to go for the threadripper PRO 3975WX which has 32 cores
and buy 4 nodes? The cost will likely be a bit higher with the 4 nodes but would that make a much more efficient render farm?
Is it generally better to have more nodes that are less powerfull or fewer that are stronger assuming the total core count is more or less the same?
Any general tips you might think would be important please let me know! Thank you!
