Dear Ana, you may want to check how many single board computers (like the Raspberry Pi or true open source hardware platform) you can buy for a single GPU high end graphics card. It may be cheaper at better performance compared to GPU computing.
XDS (and possibly also DIALS) can distribute its job across ssh, hence you only need the appropriate network connections. XDS wouldn't run on Raspberry Pi, although it may not be difficult to port.
