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 is the purpose of this system to have no OS then?

    Just get a cheap HDMI monitor then if it’s not being used for gaming/media.

      It will have Mint installed as soon as I have something I can plug in and see the command prompt. None of the displays I have available will show anything, but the LEDs are showing that I connected everything correctly.

      The reason I was/am considering a tablet as a monitor is so that I can use the computer in multiple rooms.
