Sorry if my question could be silly, but is there any option to perform 3d rendering on my Butterfly Labs ASICS?
As for now, I don't see any reason to farm bitcons on my 5Ghash ASICs, so I came up to an idea of making a rendering farm.
Thanks!

ASICs are Application Specific Integrated Circuits. The "Application Specific" part is the key word here, they are specific to being used for mining only.
