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.

    I’m going to go against the grain here. unless your a super fps player, go for a 4k monitor. 1080/1440 seems like absolute dog shit after you are using 4k for a few years. I like multiple 4ks. if there are any games your system cant push at 4k, you can play at non-native resolutions or upgrade you card. you’ll want 4k eventually.

      There is a game I play where I have an advantage playing at 4k about 80% of the time. I’ve actually adjusted my gameplay towards this, and I actually massively prefer being the “useful” player as opposed to the PvP god.
      Like, to the point that people ask me in local coms how I am seeing things.
      I just have 4 times as many pixels, and as long as I’m holding above 50fps I’m probably still going to win a PvP fight
