Burn poll, local rendering negating the need for a burn farm?

I'll bite - lots of my clients are going this way and it's been working very well. Mostly dual 6000 or dual K6000. Check with the Desk if they can run reactor with 4000s, but I doubt it.

A second big GPU is about the cost of a mediocre burn node, and significantly faster round trip to the operator. Also, significant power savings not running mad pizza boxes.

I have never seen a single proc burn node but if it's got a good GPU I don't see why not, providing there is good connectivity to the machines.

I'd suggest stopping investment into burn nodes and have for almost a year now with great success. I'd be interested to hear arguments and cases to the contrary, though.
