Spectrum Wave

Spectrum Wave is my all-AMD rig I built in September 2017.

I primarily use it for video editing, coding, virtual machines, crypto-currency mining and occasional games.

The highlight of my rig is the internal monitor inside the case. I had a broken old (but special to me) Toshiba Tecra laptop that I used back in uni and I wanted it to be part of my new computer. So I took the laptop screen and connected it as a second monitor via a video controller. It's nice to have the internal monitor to display temps and stats while I'm playing games or when the rig is mining.

I love the View 71 case as it has plenty of ventilation and I can direct the Aer fans mostly outwards with minimal effect to the temps.

Hope you like my build.
