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.

    If your displays are connect, think they’re getting a sginal, but won’t display anything then there’s something wrong with your computer. Most likely the video card since the monitors think they’re getting a signal but aren’t.

    Also you don’t want to use a tablet as a monitor. You can use a tablet to remotely control a PC when you’re not at it, but don’t consider it “using” the PC because it’s a garbage experience. It’s slow, you can’t read shit, everything is massive on the screen, etc. It’s an awful experience outside of “I just need to copy this file really quickly”
