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 have no idea why tablet was considered an option. I've never heard of anyone using a tablet, and you are the first person I've heard who is considering a tablet.
Just go with a monitor. Get a high refresh rate 1080p. You might be able to drive a 1440p if that's what you'd prefer.
Also you won't be able to use the computer without an OS. I would recommend deciding on what OS to use while waiting for the monitor to arrive
I have heard that it is an option as a portable display so I could use the tower in multiple rooms. It makes the non-portable tower a bit more portable.
Also I already have Mint ready to install on a thumb drive. Hopefully I can get MechWarrior Online working in Mint.
