• Hi everyone,
  
  I am a first year ECE student that is planning to do some IC design works this summer in a lab. Currently, I only have a macbook, which is appearently not enough for such work. Thus, I am thinking about building a PC for the task. Can anyone suggest some specification for the task? I would likely to be working on some RISC-V, in-memory computing archicture, and systolic array archicuture design.
  
  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
  
  Thanks in advance!

• Multi-monitor setup would be my suggestion.
