Hi,
this is a shot/question into the dark:
Suppose I would have two identical motherboards (desktop), both identical
equipped with a multi-core CPU each (AMD).
Two questions:
1: Is it possible to run one of the boards without a graphics card?
2: Can I "combine" both (how?) to use the power of both for rendering
purposes?
Thank you very much for any inspiration!
Best regards,
mcc

That depends on the board.
