Asus' ProArt Station PD5 desktop, announced Tuesday, aims to make it easier to multitask while you're rendering, as lights on the tower's front panel notify you when the process is complete.

An embedded smart module controls a thin pair of LED light bars, which run up parallel channels on the front panel. When the computer is rendering, the lights can flash a color or LED effect of your choosing, selected via Asus' ProArt Creator Hub software. You'll know the job is done when the lights revert to their standard white (or a different color of your choosing).

You can also set up rendering notifications through Microsoft Teams.
