2GB Pi is $55 on amazon. 4GB version is $62. That'd be $450+ for the eight pies.
Ryzen 2700 launched at $300 (and tapered down to ~$200) and would pretty much run circles around such a Pi cluster.
Just saying. These Pi clusters can be a cool and fun thing to build but if you're looking for compute power, you'd be better served by a mid-range desktop.
