Currently I have an opportunity to have 64 CPU cores running at ~2 GHz Is there some software or computer magic that emulates 64@2.0 to perhaps 16@8.0 (theoretically speaking, yield would be less)? It's essentially the same number of clock cycles, just reoriented. Programs use a set number of cores, so why not virtually redefine the core? I'd be running a few programs and games that would never consume 64 cores and much power would be wasted. This would reduce the number of cores not being used while boosting performance on programs using the "emulated" cores It should be more power efficient than if we had real 16@8GHz, right?

I looked at GeForce Now. My desktop would already have decent hardware, so I just thought I'd find a way to use that when I'm away with my laptop. I'll just go with remote desktop

Yikes, that sounds complicated... I certainly need a simpler solution. Electronics Wizardy mentioned remote desktop and I guess that may work. No what I had perfectly in mind, but it may just be the best way to go

I'm pretty new to all this... No clue about the program supporting that kind of stuff? Probably not since it is mostly math and CAD, and this stuff would be pretty different from what people typically do I'll certainly look into remote desktop That's a good idea to wait for the newer GPUs, and I'll get a faster one. I just assumed I'd need a few if it had to supplement other devices

I'm looking to get a high end desktop workstation/gaming rig, but with a few extra bells and whistles: I'd like access it from at least two weak laptops for decent gaming or working over LAN or internet I understand there'd be latency issues over the internet itself, so the gaming wouldn't be incredible. But would it work well enough? And could it supplement its GPU power to two or more laptops over LAN for gaming? Also, I tend to do some time consuming calculations, so could a laptop use its own CPU and the desktop CPU together for added speed? I'm looking in the ballpark of at least 16 CPU cores, 64 GB ECC RAM, and 2 or 3 GTX 1070 tis, but am open to suggestions... Is this possible, and how so? (Probably gonna make the purchase in October, so I'm just planning at this point...) Thanks!!!
