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.
The i3-12100F doesn’t have integrated graphics so plugging an HDMI cable into the motherboard won’t give you any output. You need to plug the monitor into the GPU, the ports are lower down. I don’t know what you mean about monitor vs tablet
I have heard that it is possible to use a tablet as a portable display, so that I can use the tower in multiple rooms
I use a tablet as a second monitor on my Windows laptop occasionally. It’s white laggy and only really good for displaying mostly static stuff. I used it for the browser to reference assignment details and other resources while I used my laptop display for my IDE. I wouldn’t recommend it for gaming or videos.
Gotcha, thanks for the recommendation
