    So, do I need a GPU to use facial rec. with this?

    I have a NAS with a low powered CPU, but I don’t care if it takes weeks to analyse - we don’t take loads of photos.

      No, I do all the facial stuff on my little n305. Depends on size of photos and how many. I have about 9k and it took a few hours to churn through.

      I passed my igpu through and honestly found almost no speed benefit after the initial import. So i removed it.
