4k transcoding performance, CPU or old Nvidia card?
This is not true. You could setup Plex in a cluster and based on which content is requested let it handle by a certain transcoding worker. You have Clusterplex or you have UnicornTranscoder. Both are actively maintained repositories. This does however require some knowledge of Linux/Kubernetes so if OP (/u/slacktopuss) doesn't know how Ubuntu and Kubernetes works, it's going to take a long time before you're up and running.

Transcode Media on different machine
And if UnicornTranscoder isn't it, you can always look intoClusterPlex's implementation. Basically the same as how UnicornTranscoder works (Node.JS as balancer and some remote FFMPEG installs).
