say I grabbed myself a couple slightly older Xeon chips with say 8 cores from Ebay and slapped them into a dual socket board with a little quatro and couple other components then BAM. I have a rendering PC! my current PC that i edit on has an Intel Gigabit LAN port. how could I use that to just send stuff over to be automatically rendered?

can you elaborate on what programs you use and the desired end product?

Get a program that accepts jobs via network to a que and automatically starts rendering them.

- ASUS X99 Deluxe - i7 5820k - Nvidia GTX 1080ti SLi - 4x4GB EVGA SSC 2800mhz DDR4 - Samsung SM951 500 - 2x Samsung 850 EVO 512 -

- EK Supremacy EVO CPU Block - EK FC 1080 GPU Blocks - EK XRES 100 DDC - EK Coolstream XE 360 - EK Coolstream XE 240 -

sorry I forgot to mention. I use the Adobe software. I'd like to edit on Premier Pro CC on my PC, then send it over to Adobe Media Encoder on the other PC.

Perhaps just use RDP or teamveiwer? simple andgives you other options as well 

                     .

                  / /  /

I will say. you might not get great quality if you try to view the renderings on the remote render pc but you can just transfer the end products back or even just have a screen on the remote pc and view tem after they render 

                     .
                   _/ V\
                  / /  /
                <<    |
                ,/    ]
              ,/      ]
            ,/        |
           /    \  \ /
          /      | | |

Oh yeah that won't matter. I just want to render simultaneously with gaming and recording stuff.

You "Can't It's rendering"

1. playing games and recording is litterally my job

2. i'm self employed
