Simply put I have built a gaming tower that I have no monitor that will connect with the machine only having a BIOS and no OS. As I understand it, I need something that will connect with an HDMI cable, but that seems to be either a traditional monitor or a tablet. I’m completely unsure which would be more stable, and therefore “better.” I lean towards the normal static monitor over HDMI enabled tablets, but I am uncertain if that is just me being out of touch with the latest hardware.

This is the build list I used, except I doubled the RAM to 64 GB of the same type.

Thank you very much, in advance.

    What games are your goal?

    I hope it isn’t one that you need to see because you have no graphics card, like at all. The CPU is an F in the part number which means the CPU doesn’t have an inbuilt graphics card. Either get a non F variant or add a graphics card to your list.

    With that sorted, what size screen are you looking for? How many?

      There’s a 6700 XT on there (now at least), although it’s got no picture or price listed.

      There is a 6700 xt graphics card. To start I just want something that will actually interpret the signals coming from the GPU. I am considering a tablet as, from what I understand, I could use that as a portable display to use the tower in multiple rooms.

      The game I’m most worried about working in Linux Mint, which I have ready to install on a thumb drive, is MechWarrior Online
