Merge/Cluster two computers?

Forum General Networking : General Discussion Merge/Cluster two computers?

Hi!

First time post, big fan of this website.

So my issue is I have my gaming rig running 24/7, but it gets hot in the summer. I'm trying to plan ahead and would only want to use it when I need it. Lately I haven't been gaming much, only surfing the web and watching hulu/netflix.

I have a spare intel d510mo with dual core atom.

Is it possible to network them together or merge them so that I can watch movies/download on one and leave the other for gaming? I already have a kvm switch for multiple computers I fix, not sure if I want another.

I'm kinda going for something similar to the DFI P45 hybrid that was discontinued. I want to wait for ivy bridge or maybe if Lucid virtu improves before I upgrade.

Thanks!

Sound like you just need a router to share your internet connection.
I would recommend D-Link
