See HAK5 demo ProxMux. I would be guessing what your needs are but there is no way to tap the desktop for say "gaming" but I could remotely tell the cluster to rev up and do some heavy computation, etc.

The video focuses on hardware but you can figure out how ProxMux plays into what you asked for.

So, I'm prepping for college and the classes I'm taking require for me to have a laptop and I'm on a budget for obvious reasons. I don't have a powerful laptop but I do have a powerful workstation. I know that in theory I can use a software like hamatchi or remote utilities to have the power of my workstation with my laptop but will I actually see a practical PREFORMACE difference if I use a remote login service with a relatively underpowered device to login from?
I should specify that I would need to be able to render 3d images. My desktop is more than capable and my laptop is not.
Thanks in advance
