Client, Master and slave speed?

What would be a good computer component setup for the client, master and slave? Do they all have to have fast components in them? I have a mixture of computers that I’m going to use in a farm setup, some beefy setups, some not so beefy. Can someone please explain a good mixture?

Thank you,

As many as you can have lol, each slave will render as fast as it can by itself, but every extra bit counts.

The master should have a decent network connection, and not be too slow (if its really powerful, run a slave on the master using 1/2 cores or something)

Finally, the client can be whatever you want or need it to be, as it won’t be rendering (unless you run a slave on it as well). Helps if you work on your laptop, but spread a heavy render across multiple machines.
